bodykit = never
conversion = right away :)

I remember with my first ever honda i made it look how i liked but it went like a slug. I sorta felt embarrassed.

Everyone is different though.

So many people on here are all talk about engine conversions.. It isnt cheap and that is why.

like what other people said, it's up to you. Obviously engine conversion will cost more and it depends on if you have other priorities in your life i.e saving for a house. I would like to do the same but I'm supposed to be getting a place at the end of the year. So i would go kit first. If you want people to look at you car then kit but if you want power, then start saving for a conversion.

Kit = you get the "look" when someone passes you.

Conversion = you get the "look" when you pass someone.

Your choice.

I rate body kit first

mainly because at this stage your mixing paint, good chance to paint the whole car and engine bay whilst the engine is out

(engine converison)

i dont know why people are suggesting to sell it?

that always happens, what the fcuk? it doesnt work like that.


dont bother with a bodykit. the fast and furious era is over. it ended 3 years ago. nobody likes bodykits and neons and all that other shit anymore

people will LOL at you. just get a simple lips/skirts/rims combo, and do the engine

i always see all these done up civics on the road and they always step on it in 1st gear and the thing is, the car will never go anywhere!! like it'll move forward but it takes 10 years to do so. lolol so my point is engine conversion. I personally likes sleepers better than all looks and no go. But its totally up to you though..

Do engine conversion!! You dont want somebody to think ur fast just coz of ur looks, but truthfully ur not.

For me, i rather have no look but instead have a beast under my hood :)


I vote for Conversion first :D

You never get sick of power, but once you get used to it and you'll want more... why do you think so many people go from dc2r or b18c eg to evo's

Engine conversion first. Make it a sleeper until you get your body kit unless like previously said, you want to get your car sprayed including engine bay.
