Alloys are a good place to start with. I wouldn't go too nuts on the size. 16" maybe

donedeal etc will have plenty stuff to fit.

A rare thing, a Civic coupe that hasn't been ruined yet.

Not my cup of tea at all civics... but lower it, and get some non tacky alloys (so no wolfrace katanas or those crappy oxygen wheels or other white like that) for it. Any semi sporty car will always look a bit better lowered.

15 inch wheels with a decent set of tyres, lower it, front lip (Spoon or Mugen), Type R grill, JDM Black headlights, 50/50 rear lights, back three windows tinted to around 65%, debadge and claybar/wax it like a nutter!

I always find those multicoloured suspension upgrades very amusing, it looks like the suspension's been replaced with kids meccano set pieces! If it works it works, it just looks funny

I've heard some serious horror stories about them recently, mainly from people I'd trust.

If you want someone who knows Honda's, the lads in Urban will put you straight.

Everything you were told to do here, ie, 50-50 lights, type-r grills, spoon/mugen lips, ignore. Make it what you want, not like every other civic coupe. You have a blank canvas, don't be a sheep please, be original.

Id go with a lip kit, nice wheels, no bigger than standard though, lower it and tint the back three windows.

Have a look at the USDM look on google, I think it suits coupes to the ground.

Urban are great lads, know their stuff. Are TF still operating? Was down in JFK recently and they seem to have shut up shop.

They have moved from the premises just inside the gate on the left to, down to the roundabout and take a right and in behind the building to the left. Andy is gone from them now though, he was the guy most of us delt with.

Ah I see. Would have chatted with Jeff Cole a bit in the day, any reason as to why Andy has left?

sorry for going off topic OP.
