New here, bought a civic 02 ex 5spd 2 weeks ago. It has a body kit on it not sure which one but it looks nice, the paint is kinda metallic gold which i dont like much and i'm thinkin of havin it repainted to metallic dark blue. it came installed with an aem cold air intake, dc header, and custom 2.25 in catback piping with an aero turbine muffler which sounded nice but was too loud for me. Already got a quieter muffler installed. got it for $6100 total w/105,000 miles. I like the car, wish it had more torque thinkin bout puttin a light weight crank pulley to help that problem. Lookin forward to everyone's input. Thanks

well im thinkin its both in and out. i tried waxing and buffing it out on the outside and it helped a little. still yellowish though, i read bout wet sanding it and was wanting to try it....

- i was thinking the same thing about it being purposeful. if you know anyone that does blackout work on taillights you may want to ask them about it. chances are they'd know what was going on or know someone that does. good luck. end.

RE: new guy
lightweight crank pulleys are not recommended because they are not balanced as good as the stock one and can cause damage to your engine.
want more torque? get a supercharger. or a turbo, but superchargers have instant torque, as turbos have to spool before you can have more torque an hp and that depends on what size turbo you're using as to what RPM the turbo spools at.
