Modifying a Civic Sedan- looks + sound

[dale]

yo my mates just inherited his parents civic 4 door sedan stock as a rock

its one of the newer models

hes not into performance really, just wants to make the car look sweet for cruisin

hes off this afternoon to autobarn to check out some stuff but could anyone give any suggestions of what would be nice for him to get

Main things hes thinking

- Body kit: i have found one civic for sale with a nice mugen bodykit for the sedan but cant seem to find anymore info, if anyone could help with that

- Sound system: probably will just get some package with cool stuff that they suggest

- Wheels: he wants to get some nice new wheels could anyone suggest where to look however not too expensive, maybe second hand if they are in good nick

- Suspension: He wants to lower the car but the problem of having a car thats too low for speed bumps etc is not something he wants

any helpful information would be great

Thanks

Dale

Edit: Car is in sydney north shore

No offence.. but what does this have anything to do with skyline or even nissan ?

Wouldnt it b better served being posted on a honda or civic forum?

[Jamezilla]

Backup: With all due respect - and this being a Skyline forum and all - I don't think there will be too many people able to offer constuctive advice as how to non-performance modify a Civic.

Might I suggest checking out the http://forum.hot4s.com.au/ website forum - as many of the members there would be more likely to lend a hand in 'dressing' up a Civic. The Hot4s or AutoSalon magazines would no-doubt feature ads relating to suppliers who would help out your friend.

Do disrespect intended - just pointing you to a better starting point.

Cheers

I'm with james, there are far better places to start than a skyline forum. Not to many civic friendly folk on here....myself included.

[predator]

you're asking in the wrong place..

[DarkCoupe]

try ozhonda.com ... I dont think many can help you here ...

[G0DF4Th3R]

dude.. lol

try Vtechnique website as well and Club RSX

[Guest INASNT]

any helpful information would be great

sell it and get a real car

[DarkCoupe]

sell it and get a real car

LOL ... amen :wassup:

[LaL]

dude, are you sure your friend has a civic ? or are you just trying to cover yourself up ?

[nizmokid]

god dam civic's .....tell him to trade it in, that will make it look heaps better!....other wise Ozhonda will help you out!

[Yotis]

Hahah.. guys.. come on.. give the poor guy a break.. he might have just realised that he has posted here by mistake..

[dale]

lol this website is for nissan skyline ENTHUSIASTS so you may or may not have a skyline I know lots of people on here with diff cars so i thought maybe anyone could help with civic

thanks for directing me to that other site

dude, are you sure your friend has a civic ? or are you just trying to cover yourself up ?  

and no i dont have a civic.

its quite unbelievable the responses ive got lol

i think the name skylines australia kinda gave it away that it was a skylines website but bein a forum member here i thought sum ppl might have a better idea as i didnt think the flaming would be the same as if i did it elsewhere with ppl i dont know

anyway thanks for URL's guess ill seek help for his civic elsewhere than in the "General" Cars section

(this is not a rant !! so i got the point so if anyone does have a civic and can help thanks heaps, as i did get already get help on bodykits for a civic)

I dont think they were really flaming.. i think people just get annoyed that there are people who seem to be search engine retarded. Im sure if I went to google or similar I could find 100 sites about modifying civics within 2 mins.

That was a bit harsh, he has already said he's a member of this site, and just wanted some of out opinions... shouldn't cut him down for this as most true car enthusiasts appreciate all types of cars, and he just thought maybe the educated people of this forum could offer some advice...

on the other hand...

[dAVE]

dont see how it was harsh.. just explaining to him why i thought he got the response he did......
