Default First-Time Civic Owner - '07 Civic LX Coupe

Hello everyone!

I just bought an '07 Civic LX Coupe (Atomic Blue) 5-speed... and I LOVE IT! I used to drive a rebuilt 2000 Cavalier, but the repairs on that... that... thing! was getting to be WAAAY more than the payments on a New car so I finally bit the bullet and bought a brand-new car. I had sworn that I would never buy a New car, but one look at the 8th generation body style and that changed my mind.

... and the ~40 MPG helped out too. =)

So anyways, My '07 is pretty much stock, although I did put some chrome edge guards on the doors - looks nice too if I do say so myself.

I dont plan on turning it into a riceburner. I am beyond that point in my life where I need a Fast Car... I just need one that'll look great as I drive past all the gas stations.

My plans for this Civic:
Limo Tint on the back windows and if I can get away with it, medium tint on the front windows.
(I live in VT where tinting the front windows are - for some stupid reason - against the law)
Mud Guards
Fog Lights
Chrome 5-spoke Rims at some point

Thats about it.

Peace,
Axian

welcome to HCF, deffinatly a nice car, i like that blue. looks like u should be keeping the car clean, i like that, but i would stay away from chrome rims, go with something less flashy, but that my opinion. Enjoy the fourm, and stick around.

Grrrr... damnit, my home computer is having power supply issues - rebooting at random times for reason whatsoever. I have pix on my camera all set to post here showing my Autobot Badge on the trunk... (Yes, Igrew up inthe 80's) Its made of aircraft aluminum so it looks like a real badge.

I'll pick up a new power supply this weekend and hopefully get the picts up then.

sorry
