Make it look exactly like that pic only a 4 door Only better headlights and a mugen replica lip and a nice grille. Id say go for the Rotas like Trust has (black) or whatever other kind of rims you could get your hands on. IMO those wheels would look good on a sedan once lowered but 1.) idk if your wanting to lower it for her and 2.) idk if you really like them (Rotas) in the first place

i might lower it a tad, but not much cause she yells at me when i slam my civics...
also on the rims i have a buddy who has 3 of these rims , lost 1 so i would need to buy one to make it a set. i might go with them, but still got my mind open and im still looking around,

Hmmmz a 2" drop, those wheels in black, window lip things (blankin on the name), mugen replica front lip, that greenish-blue paint that your wife wants, the half and half tails, oem rear wing, nice sounding exhaust, intake, headers etc, yellow fogs, and ctr black housing headlights (or something like sfazngiants has).Thats just the start for me lol

get that green paint job since she likes it. I think some black, gunmetal, gold, white or bronze wheels would look good with the green. appearance wise i think a set of oem foglights, oem honda access front and rear lip, black or gunmetal headlights, side markers, replica type r grill and i'm assuming your gonna drop it a little as well.
