body kit or lip kit
#21
^^ absolutely. Give it 5 years and everybody will hate on lips and will do something else. Its a matter of personal choice. It shouldn't matter what's cool now, but you should do what YOU think looks good. And if you have any questions we can help you find the parts.

i dunno but last time i checked the whole point in personalizing a car is to make it personalized. something that you like and you shouldent really care what others think.
everyone was down with full kits then it went. now it's all about the lips i understand that, i like that,
but do you. dont get caught in a coon cage.

lmao that's jokes... i thought that too at first...
naw but op on civics the buddy club style rear bumper looks clean still for a kit, and a buddy of mine had tsunami front and it looked ok... woulda looked better with a fmic imho...
for tsx or tl tho... a guy at my work has a newer black tl with a kit, full murdered out on black rims dropped an it looks sooooo sick, but end of the day it's your car, your call. if it was me i'd be on cardomain religiously because if you thought it, someone else has done it an you can see what you like from there

I went to a bodyshop to have my lip install. It cost me 170 to have the front and rear lip painted and install. They actually put some kind of silicon / or glue (bodyglass maybe??), so that its firm ... So it is attached with a rivet plus glue to the body. therefore it is very hard to remove. I would have to repaint the bumper if I decide to remove the lip.
I asked the guy to do it that way , as my previous lip (from too fast motors) used to go out of place (bolow the bumper) everytime I hit a bump ( hard bump)
I actually like the fact that there is some kind of glue there so the lip stays strong in place like it was part of the bumper and it also keeps the lip high from the ground instead of having a lip hangin below the bumper which was the case with just rivets
As per the trim , I had the samebody shop paint the whole car , including the black trims to silver...It looks cleaner that way
I also had the black trim between the front and rear window painted black , and that made a huge difference ..
