i like it. just gotta fix that lower grill, it kinda looks odd with it hanging below the front fascia like that. and the engine bay colors are nice, but i would try to get the reds to match. other than that its looking good man.

I can say that I probably don't ANY of the modifications that you did to the car. And that might be a first for me.

Your lower grill hangs down below the bumper, Your engine bay can't decide what color RED it wants to be, and I can't decide WHY it wants to be red. The Bulbs you picked are SCREAMING cheap. Interior lights...... not my taste. And some civic called and wants his wheels back. Geez I better stop before I hurt your feelings, but I'm being honest.

Okay on a positive note.......Injen intake was a good choice. There I found one thing I liked.

drop and painted grills black would give it a much nicer look, other than that going in the right path.

aftalene spot remover will work on the pin stripe...it'll take a lot of elbow grease and ull have to at least hand buff the area afterwards but its better than using sand paper

its def gotta be dropped

the grille is sticking out the bottom of the car and it doesnt flow with the rest of the car as far as color or anything try painting it black so its not as "in your face"

overall good effort...just remember its all in the details...take your time and do things right and tastefully and it will make all the difference...good job

How are the bulbs screaming cheap? I changed the interior lights because I hate the greenish ones that come stock. The rims I like..

The pink stripe has grown on me. I think it gives the car character. The grill was fixed about two days ago. I am going to paint the grill black as soon as the weather clears up.

The buttons and everything glowed greenish, Ac controls, power window buttons ect.

See... I love it most people that have seen it in person do too.

The turn signals are Sylvania there clear and glow amber so its street legal.
