For a full kit, I think it looks pretty decent...not too crazy, but a nice change in appearance. Other than it being fiberglass which according to some people will be fragile (I personally dont have much experience there). But yeah looks good imo.

I like it. I really like what a kit can do for the appearence of a car. I know a lot of the guys on here hate them but I guess I am just different. I am also hearing a lot of negative feedback about the fiberglass though chips, cracks, and doesn't hold up to well. So you will need to be careful with it.

welcome to ebay shiping prices.LOL
thats how MOST ebayers make thier money... because SHIPING costs is not totaled into ebays FINAL BID fee..... so they pass less for listing fees... so they can charge alittle less TOTAL price to try and undersell other sellers....




but anyways ya kits not to bad style.... but like always fiberglass can be bad and will bust up eventualy.... main reason ill keep with stock style stuff with only a lip...

ive seen one civic around town and nwell IT KEEPS looking like he KEEPS breaking his body kit MORE AND MORE EVERY WEEK or every time i see it.LOL
but what looks bad on his... makes my civic look beter

ORIGINAL: mxs

too much mesh
+1. Don't like rear meshes either.

But the rest of the body is a step in the right direction I think.

I like Hailchristian's though, is his the same body style as yours?
