looks nice, but it looks like a 3rd hole thats not open on the front part........ hum.... slammed front, jacked up rear......... classic muscle car stance....... lol, im uploading pics of my gbo but PB is being uber slow right at the moment.

yeah not bad
mmm yeah looks that way man
not sure see how it loos with paint on it
not sure what colour atm

bugger about photobucket man

lol ok, well to me i like the factory dark blue with the white stripes, or red with black stripes, thats it, lol........ but then again i never cared that much for classics in the first place, lol. but what ever colour you chose, i bet it will look awsome! im thinking of either a burnt orange cooper colour or a medium bright metallic green for the civic..............prob go with the burnt orange cooper colour....... idk yet........

yeah need to go out n look see what colours the shops have too

yours sounds cool man

thanx mate. i still dunno on the colour yet, something else might catch my eye, lol.

ok now for the body, the front and rear bars im gonna use:

the kit also comes with a very nice metal exhuast tip!
