sounds like your on a really tight budget. maybe go with tein s-techs with stock struts. that's about $160-$180. and another $50-$100 for an alignment. You can probably get about a 1.5" to 1.8" drop with that. Thats my set up right now and it looks lowered with stock ride quality.

i would also recommend these taillights

these headlights

these fog lights

Either a type r front lip

or a mugen front lip

some DIY stuff would be painting those black trim pieces to color match, and also the rear license plate area. Are those chrome on your windshield wiper arms, if so paint those as well

when you have more money that you want to spend or if you want to do it, upgrade your headunit with something like alpine, pioneer, sony. and to lose those stock speakers. makes a hell of a difference with the sound.

btw... your car looks really clean, flawless

IMO you should have got this exhaust tip. It looks really good on my old civic.



Way better than stock.
