Default Ideal Type R look for a 96-00 ek coupe

Alight, I was talking to a friend of mine and I saw a ek coupe that looked pretty good and looked like somewhat of a type R integra, if I did do that, what color should I do, and should I shave the side moldings?

posts like this are stupid, I know you're asking for opinions, but it's YOUR car you should do **** you want to do, not what people on Honda-tech say.

most people going for the typr r look, paint their car championship white, but the itr also came in black, yellow, and in some places red. it's really up to you what color you'd like to paint it. also shaving your moldings... that's another one for u to decide. i myself, would either leave them and paint match them if you have a hx, dx etc., or you can always get the jdm thin moldings for your coupe. another option is to pull all your moldings out and fill in the holes, but leave the indent to give it that cx/vx eg look

Make it black or sliver. Both would look good. Or gunmetal. That would also be good.

Here is a list of stuff to buy:
1)CTR Cluster,Headlights,Lip,Steering Wheel, and other CTR goodies.
2)Recaro SRD's
3)5 lug conversion
4)B16b or B18C5
5)Yellow,Championship White,Black,Silver(Overseas color),or Red(overseas color)

Then you have a bunch of money tied up for no reason.

Even with discounts bro it is still gonna cost you quite a few grand. I have many hookups to bro across the US. Without stealing anything you are gonna need to have deep pockets.

recaro srd's was said twice.

personally, for the cash you'd spend. i'd buy a type r integra. b.c when all is said and done, your car will still be a civic and it will just be a poser. my .02
