Alloys
Lights/neons
Sports Seats
Performance Exhausts

Any thing else would be a help aswell

The dude is new so he doesn't know why us veterans () hate modifications like neons. The reason they do, making a stupid story short, is that dumbasses in econboxes like Civics rice out cars for show, not go, and getting the next best thing to a real modification (this next best thing is a pointless show modification which serves no requirement, and is tacky), and they also act as if they can beat a decent car (although SOME people have fast rice). THESE PEOPLE ARE CALLED RICERS, AND YOU WOULDN'T WANT TO BE ONE. Also, these people are gay, but if you are from the UK, people do these things in Novas, Saxos etc. But keep the aspirations high for a car like a GT-R, Supra, Evo, STi


If you are looking for performance parts for the engine (exhaust requirement covered) and you own a Peugoet (sp?) then 1Stefanel1 Can help you. But try these sites:

Ecosse Performance
Dimma

Those are for styling and performance:

Seats - as said, Sparco

Alloys - BBS, 5Zigen, but try wheelmax.com

Lights - do you mean bulbs like blue for the headlamp? Try Philips, Hella, etc. Neons, well I don't wanna help you with that

Re: Brands n stuff

Alloys: I don't know what to tell you. Don't go bigger than 17" or 18". Also stick with a brand that sells some good looking and still reasonably light wheels. Unsprung weight is a killer.

Lights/neons: Forget the neons, you will find anybody here that likes those. However; some nice Xenon headlights prove to be practical and light the road better, just aim them right.

Sports Seats: Sparco, Momo, blah blah, it doesn't really matter. They all cost a lot of money, and are you really going to use them?

Performance Exhausts: I am a Borla man, that is my personal favorite, but it really depends on your application. Magnaflow is good, some people like Flowmaster but I would avoid them like the plague if your car is turbocharged.

Without a doubt, the nicest wheels on the market are from iForged with HRE being close second. BUT, at nearly 900 per rim for 18s, witout tires, they're certainly not for everyone
