Default Car accident

sup essays,
I think I'm getting the hang of this thing. Anyway I've never been a big fan of "rice rockets" but a couple of weeks ago I was involved in a pretty bad car accident (other car's fault) and it put my 4x4 out of commission...tear...anyway the insurance compay left me with a teenie weenie insurance check and I had to get something fast. On the last day of my rental aggreement with the car I had been provided, I came across a teal '95 2dr civic. It didn't look like much but I had to get something. Long story short, I will never make fun of "rice rockets again. I have been impressed with its reliablity, quality, and performance every since. Which all leads me to my question. Anyone in the Bay Area California know a good aftermarket tuner/bodyshop?

I came from the domestic side owning a 355 built camaro. After beating swaped civics and h22 ludes...I thought life was good...well gas prices got spendy and car would run on anything less than premium..I got a 89 civic and loved how it handled and how it was "quick" for a lil 4 banger...the lil d16a6 was super reliable...now i recently got a dx coupe as a daily driver and recently got another camaro project..gotta have the best of both worlds..low-midrange torque with the doemestic and high rpm hp and reliablity and awseome HANDLING of a honda...a lil FYI if you plan on doing a lot to your car learn to work on the car youself cause you will save a lot of $$$

A 1992 2 door Civic should be a hatchback - what trim is it? CX? DX? VX? Si?

Yeah sorry I misread the year - I had a few drinks at dinner.

Anyways my question still stands:

Coupe? Hatch? (They both have 2 doors )

What trim is the car? If it's a coupe is it an EX or DX? 5-speed or automatic?
