Talking Thanks

I am going to do the simple bolt ons 1st. I have to order my Injen intake and get some quotes on some springs and struts. 6th Gen Civics have struts not shocks if I am correct?

Thanks for the comment.

welcome to AF!

nice, clean looking car.

when you say lower, do you mean lower performance, or lower as in slammed?

personally, and I have a hard on for these parts: eibach prokit and tokico illuminas. IMO. depends on what you're goin for
