You guys are raggin on me for how it looks, fine. Like I said in my previous posts though, it may look ricey to a lot of you, but atleast im trying to back it up with an engine. Yes, it's auto, but if someone came up to you and offererd you a 98 civic ex with 47000 miles on it for $2,500, are you going to turn it down? In my case, Hell no! I'm driving around a POS chevy lumina right now thats about to fall apart *lol*. The wing, yes I know it's big...I don't even know if I like it yet until the thing gets painted. I'm not a member of this site to make enemies, nor am I trying to offend anyone, so if I am, I appologize. I like the body kit and figured some of you might like to see it....I was wrong there.

"I removed pictures from this page because apparently they are humoring people"

Suck it up you gotta take personal opinion very lightly.. The guys here are pretty hard core against body kits and other non-go parts.. So dont like flip out if they dont like your ----.

WTF? why did you take the pic off? Now I don't even know what the ---- looks like. I really wanted to see that "West Wings" kit. WTF? I thought that was Wings West. ;) The west wing is a tv show. I'm not mad at you though, I know Ohio is always a couple years behind the times.

Hey trancemaster, you spent all that money to take it to shows and have the "show kids" talk ----?

hey guys i saw the pics, the car is black, with a flat black kit, a F+F treminator 2 wing, ALTEZZAS!!, and like, 3 hubcaps. and the body kit looks like ass, plus there is like fiberglass and bonda all over it. it looks like complete ass. and i really dont care if the car ran 8.3 in the 1/4 mile. i would never drive it. and would i take a civic with 47k on it for 2500? sure!! but it wouldnt go on the road till i pulled out that gay ass automatic tranny. i would never put that amount of work into an automatic car. and yes... you WILL blow it up. i would like to know, how many people on here actually drive an automatic car?? not many. theres a reason for that

I agree with Brett on the Auto tranny thing... I don't have a problem with getting a good deal on an AT, I'll probably even have one in my garage someday. But I wouldn't put a bunch of money into it if it wasn't exactly what i wanted. I'm not saying you gotta wait for an NSX or Porsche, but you can wait until you get something that is easier to tweak and more fun ro drive.

Which makes me wonder... are you really into cars for the thrill of driving, or do you just want to have a car that looks better and is faster than the next guy's? I don't know about anyone else in here, but I can't stand the thought of not being able to drive a manual. For the purposes of the joy of driving, I would take my slow 5-speed Civic over an automatic Corvette anyday of the week. I know you got this car because of a great deal and all, but who's to stop you from selling it and buying a Manual? AT cars are worth a little more anyways. I am just glad that when I stumbled into my Civic, it was a 5-speed... otherwise I'd probably be in the same boat you are in (minus the rice)

that sucks that that guy pussed out and took down the pictures. Here's what I have to say: What the ---- turns heads? a turbo tucked into your car that no one can see or a body kit? I know I look whenever I see a bodykit around here, why? because if it is done nicely in this area they probably spent some money making it fast too. I know a guy who has a cf hood, body kit, 18s, lowered, several video screens and hatch wings that runs 13s. I don't see why every body has to come on here and say "that ricey" when they could be wasting their time making their own damn car better.
