Default 2006 and up Body kits

I have a 2006 Honda civic sedan and i was wondering if anyone has put a new body kit on their 2006 civic and up? I want to put one on my car but I can't see how to put new side skirts on when they are pretty much connect to the actual fender and door panels unless you glue them on or something. Does anyone know what i mean or has put a new body kit on a new civic model?

Just get a lip kit all around, and you avoid all the hassle, and ugliness!

I would put a Lip kit on it but the thing is im already having to buy a new rear and front bumper due to a lot of paint damage/ bumper damage so im assuming i should just get a body kit. I already had taken of the bumpers before to put in new lights...its not hard but i will need a new paint job

I just looked at your car... man it looks nice! Please don't ruin it with a body kit, IMO they are so ugly and throw the lines of the car off. Just get some new bumpers, get a nice lip at the same time, and get them all painted at once. Then you will have one clean car, without the rice of a body kit.

EDIT: I just saw you were from Swedesboro... that's not too far from me, I'm in Pittsgrove if you've ever heard of it.

Trust me man you would be better off keeping it all stock and getting stock bumpers than a body kit, they never look good on Civic's. Lip kit is the best way to go they look good and cost less money and hassle.

Got a 4 door?
Get this kit (Mugen Aero: 2006+ Civic 4-Door)

Otherwise, just stick with lips.

It would probably cost you less to get new OEM bumpers and a lip kit.
IMO body kits are tacky and ugly. If you put one on your car it would ruin an already nice looking car.
