bodykit advice for my 4dr 98 civic EX...

XirXes · #1 10-09-2002, 09:57 AM

I have been slowly working on this 98' civic EX, i have aem intake, dc 4-2-1 header and magnaflow exhaust, lowered with altezza's. Now, to the next step. I was initially considering a fully Kaminari type 1 kit for the car, but recently it looks a bit to conservative for me... Take a look at what i have to work with and let me know what option you think would look sportiest.

1) Feels front bumper, kaminari sides/black widow sides and kaminari rear
2) JT Evo III front bumper, kaminari sides/black widow sides and kaminari rear
3) full Kaminari type I kit

as well, any feedback on recent condition would be appreciated too.

Dude your pictures are freakin huge. That's cool though. Looks like my car when I started out. Mine's a crappy LX though. Well how good a kit looks, depends a lot on the color of the car IMO. Not really familiar with the Kaminari kit, and not sure which JT model you have in mind, but I'd probably go with Black Widow, Skyline style, or Streetfyghter II. Good luck with your choice. Bet it will look sick when you're done.

Is your civic an LX or EX,
Did you get your seat covers from Costco too, I got the grey one's there sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetttttttttttttttttttttttttt, ....

Anyway, what size are your rims, cause I want to throw my coil-overs on, but am also debating buying new rims/tires,.... Otherwise I'll just drop it with stock tires (BORING) :bandit:

Personally I am really impressed with ALL of THE JT line. I was thinking of getting the JTII kit for mine,....

But it's all up to you,

BE ORIGINAL, DON'T FEEL THE NEED TO DO WHAT EVERYONE ELSE IS!!!

I got the JT evoIII with the fogs on my 99 civic. I like it. The ones w/out the fogs are nice too. I like the evo 5 ones too. Especially the rear bumper cuz they have the muffler to fit the rear bumper which is hot.
Drop the car first before you do the body kit. If your gonna keep the car black the black chrome altezzas might look nice.

my car is lowered.... as low as possible without wheel rub. I have the momo arrow 16's and they are wide with my 205/40's so i hit the frame sometimes..... I dont really like the rims, but like everything on my car, i got hooked up cheap, so i couldnt pass it up, four rims and low-pro's for 320...and altezza's for 30 bucks. but i think i am going to stay black with it... i want to change the rims to OZ superlegga gunmetal in the future. I had a question though, do they have the window trim available in a carbon fiber? i like the chrome now, it goes with my wheels, but i would like the CF when i get a CF Kaminari hood and gunmetal wheels. ANyone know who may offer the trim? thanks for all the input.

Yeah I'd check on ebay....
They have a lot of Dash kits, trim, etc.
But is your car an ex, or lx???

yeah I'd say you Really got hooked up on those deals,.....

look at the pictures brother, its an ex.

Yeah but no offense to you, but do you know how easy it is for someone to just slap an ex emblum up on their ride,... The reason I ask, was because Lx came with all the chrome trim,... Not ex,nordx, nor hx or cx,... So my only conclusion was that you bought the trim and put it on yourself, or that your car is really an lx, with an aftermarket sunroof,...
