Default body kit or no body kit??!

Like on my previous post, I just bought an 05 civic EX coupe with a manual tranny, but the thing is... will it look nicer to have a body kit? I'm not quite sure because I'm planning just to lower it an inch ( I have 17's ). My other civic is a (4 door) 93 "had" a nice body kit then I accidentally hit a ditch ( I was driving n the middle of the night..and I was tired grrr ), cracked and f*cked up now. So.. the question is, I want my car to look good... will it look good if i lower it an inch or just get a body kit?

I would just lower it. The 05 Civics look really cool as they are, but a body kit would give it a unique look.

Please dont kit it. "Good" is a relative term. Sure it will look good to mayby, other civic drivers. But everyone else will probably laugh at you behind your back. If you want to be unique while still looking good, not ricey, give it a lip, and mayby a nice paintjob. Lowering is a must, and why not do something like put suicide/shaved doors?
