Should I get this bodykit???????
I am looking into getting the Feel's wide bodykit for my 99 civic coupe and a couple people say that they don't like the kit or think it looks bad. Can you guys help me out and let me know what you think of the feel's wide bodykit on my civic? Thanx.

it looks like a street sweeper with that front end and it is just nasty. what a nasty looking kit. why do you want wide body? for it to scream "look at me?" i don' like it obviously so i would say NO don't get it

that kit looks nice. Would you shave the door handles and the mouldings like that guy in the pic did?

Well, I kinda like the widebody, but that front bumper looks like a train scoop. y'know, a cow catcher? I am not such a hardcore no-rice-in-any-form guy. I think It looks good for the most part. But it's up to you, man. It's your car, your taste, your call. Whether we like it or not really shouldn't affect your decision, although I know why you posted this. I did the same thing. It's for support, but I'm telling you, you more than likely will not get it for exterior mods. Not here. There's this anti-rice faction and they will almost allways oppose anything that doesn't increase performance.
Like I said, it's all up to you. If you like it I say go for it; its not crappy, and it looks complete.

I think i would only get a body kit if I was building a show car. If I was using it as a daily driver, I'd be too worried about gettin hit, or someone opening a door into me or sometihng. I can just imagine, I have my custom paint job with my body kit, a nd I come back, and there's scratches all down the side of it.

if /you/ like it, go for it........but make it an educated decision.......think about things like shopping carts and parking lots etc..
as for the bumper...imma have to give my opinion on that..and i agree, would look better on amtrack..

I remember seeing a pic a long time ago of a green civic hatch that had the feels' wide body fenders but used a bomex front bumper instead of the one frome feels and it looked real nice

Hey darkwing, not everyone is so hardcore anti-rice here. I like the kit actually, if it werent wide-body. The only car i like widebody are those classy luxury cars, like a Benz or somethin.
I like the color of the car in the pic too.....

If yes things u have to worry about- wheels - yes wheels - what happens is once u put that kit on- your wheels will apear to be set in more-- so u can either go & get wheels spacers & push them out a lil bit- or leave them in(this looks kinda dumb-look @ tha rear wheels) fenders - okay yeah duhh its wide body. how do u want them attached..?.. tha ones in tha pic appear to be perm mounted aswell as moulded, moulding is great for show - but DONT try to do it for a daily driver! - w/ tha bumps in tha road & just tha daily wear & tear- you moulded body work will begine to crack... trust me here... Im all about show...so what do u want to do- have u found a shop to put this kit on for u yet? - b4 u go investing in tha kit- find some1 who knows what they are doing... ...anyway Yeah its a nice kit- & as long as u have some1 who knows what they are doing put in on then everything should be great! Tha front end is special - does look like a vacume.. but if u like being alil original - then dont sweat it!
