id say full coilover kit, turbo, lambo doors...lol just playin, def get the drop on it first, maybe audio if you dont want performance? i have an alpine system, two amps and a sub in the trunk, that's an option...if you're looking inexpensive just do some simple things, lights, shiftknob, floormats, anything small like that...put some pics up tho, man i need to get some pics of mine up too

If you want some cool 14 inch rims, go to car-parts.com and look for wheels under 1996-2000 honda civic's
the one you're looking for is the 8 spoke silver alloy that's on the hx. In my opinion that's the coolest stock 14 inch rim that i've seen thus far. You can pick them up for relatively cheap, and look at the diy on the forum here on how to paint them and make them look like new. those are the hx rims... they have a great stock look in my opinion... but results will vary, especiallly if you don't have cross drilled and slotted rotors

I agree, drop first. I always suggest a new deck and shift ****. Alot of stock decks aren't rigged up for inputs from mp3 players which is a must for me. Gotta have my driving music. I'm not a fan of stock shift ***** either, greddy makes a classic counter-weighted shift ****.
