That's what I was going to say too :)

It looks good, everything is clean bar the wing. Doesn't seem to suit what you've done with the rest of the car. Good job though :)

Not bad at all. I was going to suggest painting or shaving the side moldings, but black on red isn't that bad. I think those type of spoilers aren't too bad. I mean, maybe a little crazy, but I think you're doing a good job. Keep up the good work. Nice front and nice rims too:)

drop that wing and you have one hell of a clean ride man

It looks really nice guy. I also agree... lose the wing. Also, Paint/shave your coor handles, the black does not look as good.
The Rims are hot, is this thing dropped, though? if it isn't, you should, looks like there is a little too much space in the wheel wells.
All and all, nice job, looks really nice and clean!

me likes

i love xenon sides.. you should have gotten thouse. i plan to :)

It looks dropped to me. Yeah, I think shaving the sides and handles would be cool too, or if not shave them, just paint them to match. Doin a good job though.

I think it looks cool- ok the wing, but if he finds that ok than its cool :D

Very nice looking ride..I'm not to fond of the wing either but to each his own. the over all look is very nice...

Can't wait to see it w/ the reast of the kit and painted..I like that front bumper...:frog:

well...everyone take a look at the side skirts and rear bumper...

to see the side skirts, go to the 96+ civic coupe, they are called the combat side skirts...to see the rear bumper, go to the 93-95 civic coupe it's called the VS rear cover. the web site is www.fxdesigns.com. awesome canadian company. Anyways...yea, soryr i thought i posted i am having those lame side moldings color matched, same iwth the door handles. Also..i'm putting a grill in the xenon front bumper (anyone know if i can buy on or where to get the material to make one, i looket at hardware store with no luck) Also, i haev projector headlights. I'm thinking about having the wing taken off and having a touring wing or peice wing put on..i duno....the whole fast and furious frenzy caused me to fall in love with aluminum wings.. haha

thanks for the compliments, and keep them coming, and i'll be sure to get up the pics when my car goes into the paint shop next month.

oh, and in that picture, the car is dropped aobut an inch and a half with arospeed coilovers. I am having a tokico full suspension put on next week, when the car is being converted to standard...that's right...it's an auto right now...also, i'm swappin it to rear disks at the same time. it's going to be sweet. I'm looking for a d16 head as well for a mini me conversion, then i'm going to run a 55-65 shot of nitrous. thanks guys

Looks good,don't feel the wing but if you like it it's your car.
Will be even better with your upcomming mods,but I would swap for a d16 instead of doing a mini me,but again that's just me.

with my civic being a canadian dx, there is no point really for me to do a full d16 swap, as my intake manifold is the same as the one found on an d16 equipped car, so it should produce the same effects...unless i am misinformed? I could be wrong.

thanks all

What size are your tires?

i dunno,, my rims are 17's

he said they are painted. its an old pic.

If it weren't for the wing I would of went with option 2 :)

But, I went with the last one because I hate those wings :flipa:
It would really be sweet w/ the wing!! ..you don't have altezzas do you :o

I think I am the only one, but I like the wing... somewhat... I think if you painted the decks of the wing black and the end-caps body color, it would look a little cleaner. I'm a fan of those wings IF they are done correctly. My buddy has an arospeed CF/black-aluminum on his black del-sol, along with his CF hood, it looks awesome.

Anyway, besides that the car looks pretty good. Not a fan of body kits, (I like lips...) but it looks clean, especially with the moldings painted.

u think that would look good? witht he decks painted black and rest body color? do you have pictures of your buddies wing? that sounds like it could look good, and make the car flow a bit better...

i tell you Si2000...you're just helpin' me all over the place today

..you don't have altezzas do you

yeah i do, but as if you can flame me when i've done equal amount of "go"mods as i've done "show"... that's ridiculous:rolleyes:

that ride is sick-as-hell in my opinion.....i love it. hell, i even like the wing on there...and normally i think those are rediculous :) good job! keep up the good work ;)

thanks dreemkill...

i'm glad you wrote, cuz i've been meaning to ask you what's with your signature? i've read it many-a-times and can't understand it...heheh

heh, its a quote from fakirone he posted about the cheesy ass lines in the fast and the furious......i thought it was funny as hell :D

Heres a pic of my friends Del Sol with the wing.

I don't have any pics of what your spoiler would look like painted, but I can imagine it would look a little better. It's a consideration. Also, if your not sure about painting it, you could bring it to a vinyl graphics shop and they could wrap the decks in black and the end peices in red... it's a cheap alternative, and if you don't like it, you can just take it off.

I do like that, i think id paint my posts and end caps red, and haev the plains black like you said before, i think that would make it all flow better...i've been having doubts whether or not to keep it...it's either keep it and paint it, or get a three peice mid wing.Opinions?

what kind of wheels are those? I have a 93 ex coupe in milano red, so basically the same as yours

thye're eagle 17's...i don't know the model or anyhting

i think that a touring wing would look sick on your ride. u have a pretty mild car w/ the bodykit and everything, except for maybe the combat sides, so i don't think that aluminum wing looks to good on it, the midwing would look nice on it too.

hey sup

well heres how it is:
i have a 92 civic hatch
i want to swap it with either a civic SIR
