You are all crazy.. That thing has to be 2, maybe even 3 thousand hp.

I really do like those rimes though.

IMO All those stickers look trashy, leave all of those off and it's tight.
Agreed. I don't think it's all that bad if he took off ALL of the stickers, got rid of the stupid aftermarket seatbelts he has installed. Other than that, it would look pretty nice actually (although I'm not digging the front lip either, but to each their own)

Where to start? First off, not to knock what anyone thinks looks good, but it's not in my taste at all. Like everyone said, take the stickers off!! The color scheme looks cheap to me. It's not an Si, so that drops its quality as a show car right there. No offense to non Si guys, but that's a bit over the top with not major power or interior upgrades. 19's can look good on a Civic, I saw a silver one with black racing harts that looked great, but the design and color on this one don't go over too well. Red seat belts with grey interior and blue gauges on stock seats...why? Body kit=straight rice. To say one good thing though, I like the brakes, they look good. I guess everyone has there own style and if that's what he was shooting for then I'm glad he got the look he wanted. Anyone wonder if it's an automatic?!?

OK, apparently, some people didn't look hard enough

1) It has the HFP lip kit (with front wind splitters) and people are dissing the lip kit? I call that heresy.
2) The brakes are stock.
3) The rims are nice, but are when they'll look better if they're 17's or 18's
4) Other than the exhaust, rims, wind splitters, and seatbelts, the car is stock.

None of that screams rice to me, or even says ugly to me.

ditto!
I don't know why people hate on this car, its really not that bad. I guess most of you don't know this, but this was one of the very first cars to get modded, so it didn't have too many parts availible. I think it looks better than most of the members cars on here. Like someone stated before, this was at a car show, so expect what you guys would call "rice", because its what gives you extra points.

It's not an Si. Just look at the grill. That, and this guy has had his car since Oct 11. No one in the States had an Si that early, so obviously it's an R18, but a nice looking one at that.

I guess I didn't look hard enough...I'm not slamming the lip kit, but I am slamming whatever those wings are on each side of the lip kit.

I have no idea what they are or what they are there for, but I do know that I wouldn't have put them on my car. They give it too much of a scooped look, IMO.
