No. You are WRONG.
Hybrid means a cross-breed of two things.

The bottom light silver is unless you are doing the tails on the 99 Civic Sithen the top is the light silver

ok so u want our honest opinion?
here it is:
im REALLY not feelin them side winglets, look too big for the car, i can live with the hood scoop, but that ITR lip has to go, maybe if you would have taken off the stock lip and just put the ITR one there it would be straight but now uit just looks :bloated: but the paint color looks tight
:D

Sorry, but I don't like any of those mods.
One day when I build this kit all I'm going to do is shave some of those
side rubber lines and the handles and change the wheels.
I really hate that lip man!
Sorry. :)
