Spray dullcoat over those seats, it doesn't look that realistic if you have glossy seats.

I have a suggestion for you, a smoothed trunk with your door handles, it's a good modification.

Skip nitrous and go straight to real power adders; ie. An engine swap or turbocharger. Turbos are a bit tricky because they usually entail some scratchbuilding, but look quit cool. An engine swap can be equally impressive, such as placing either the Revell Integra engine or (I haven't seen it done befroe, which is odd) the Revell NSX engine. Think about that, a 3.0L V-6 powered Civic. You won't see another one. :angel:

With pleasure, man. There are Altezza lights in the box or not? (it's maybe a stupid question).
The Integra engine in your Civic, that's a good idea... |
