Thumbs up NEW BODY KIT DESIGN CONCEPT

Hi 8thcivic members! My name is Justin Fong and I am currently designing a body kit with AITracing for the 06 civic si/coupe platform. What I have here are just a couple of sketches of what the final product could look like. But right now, we are just looking for peoples' opinions and feedback, so please let me know your honest opinions and feedback. If there are more positive feedback than negative. We will put the designs into production. I will upload more designs in the future, but as of right now, enjoy!! Thanks all, Justin Fong.

front design


rear design

The front looks really good but i think the back bumper needs more work i just don't like the way it looks, but maybe in real life it end up looking better who knows.

Thats just my honest opinion. and thanks for working on a kit for our civics.

amazing. i love how it does not over- do the whole car, as most body kits do. this kit (sketch) seems to just take the attributes of the car, and the lines of the car, and magnify them.

I like the back bumper. It has a similar simplicity of the concept Si had. Simple yet not at the same time. It follows the lines, makes the car look aerodynamic and sleek.

I like that alot...it still resembles the HFP kit but has it's own added flare.....looks very aggressive


If it's within driving range, I'd be happy to let you use mine for fitting

Honestly its hard to tell the lines in the pictures to see how it would really look, is the front a blitz style?

Thank you so much for the positive comments!! But i am truely sorry to tell you guys this, but my Si is going to be our next project (for test fitting). Don't be bummed out though because I will inform you guys if we have group buy listing going on. But as of now, the price is uncertain, it will be affordable though.

Personally, I think the middle is a little TOO aggressive. It mismatches the rear. A softer middle air dam would make the car retain aggressiveness, while not being over-the-top. But that's just me.

Looks good though. Makes it look evil. If I had a FBP, I would jump on it.

Honestly it looks like an 80's Ford Thunderbird. I don't care for it..the front has too large of a center opening on the front fascia, the side skirts look a bit squared and too large, the rear also has too hard of a chiseled line, I like how the OEM look has both rounded and squared edges that work with each other nicely. Your kit makes a too dramatic shift towards all squared hard lines. You asked for input, dont take mine the wrong way, I commend you for at least asking. I think the "Tuner Scene" is going in the more sudued look area, rather than all ricey as has been the past 5 years. IMHO the FP Si has too high a rear end (for clearance issues from the factory) that area needs help in leading the eye to sense the rear is lowered or eased down towards the ground. It looks high waisted from the factory. The front OEM look is very agressive and only needs a slight bit of lower extension with the addition of a splitter added to the fascia. The side skirts is where a more agressive stance can and should happen maybe with the addition of wheel arches on the ends.

Hurry up and start making it so I can buy it. This is the first non HFP kit I've seen that I like.
