Soon 2008 CSX owner - mods?

Hey guys!

I'm about to get my CSX and I want to do some simple mods for it - any ideas?

I know the car needs a spoiler so considering either a mugen wing or the factory OEM wing - does the honda civic and csx share the same factory oem wing? because the honda wing is significantly cheaper than the acura one...

I got the factory OEM wing. The Mugen one was a little bit too ricey for me. However, if you go with some nice rims and the full kit, the Mugen one wouldn't look too bad. Congrats on the purchase!

that's what I was thinking.. since I don't think I'll go with the FULL kit.. I may do the grille because I like the mugen grille.. but yeah factory spoiler seems pretty ok as well

did you get the civic one or did you get the csx one?

I was driving a Civic before, but switched to the CSX, got the spoiler when I picked up my car.

btw does anyways know if HabaneroGuy is still helping people with LED mods? I just saw the thread for the LED Mods and wow they look amazing.

I would love to get one of his mod kits...

CTR kit and spoiler would look sick if you want a replica check this out on ebay

I'm not suggesting to get a ebay body kit esp. it's from out of North America. Get a mugen kit replica from BE and enjoy your personalize mods from yourself. As everyone said, get a type-s, you'll never regret it. I drive CSX non type-s Navi.

Oh, get your car before April 12 and join the meet!

hey guys thanks for the suggestions..
i bought a OEM-style spoiler off ebay to save some money :P
acura wants 750 for it.. wtf.

id actually like to get the CTR front and rear lip and the side skirts but probably not immediately.. i like the way the car is now and i want to figure out a way to get it for cheaper in Taiwan.. they make PU CTR kits there..
