Civic'09 1.8L (FD1?) Exterior modding - Complete noob that requires help !

[stanz86]

Hey everyone, have owned my civic for about a year now and have finally saved enough for some cosmetic surgery!

I've seen so many gorgeous civic pictures on the web and more than ever i get confused between the Mugen and Mugen RR kits. Also, it seems that most bodykit sellers/installers are from Sydney and my friends just drive stock cars and have no clue on this topic. Would be nice if anyone could shed some light on my noobiness.

Always wanted my car to look something like this :

With the exception of the wing spoiler :wave:

So.. questions time !

Is that a Mugen / Mugen RR kit?
Are those 17" rims?
Is the car lowered?
Are there any retail bodykit importers/sellers in Melbourne/Victoria?
Any reliable mechanics to install/paint/wire LCD screens in Melbourne/Victoria?

Worst case scenario, am willing to drive up to Sydney if anyone here on the forums can provide such services, am on the first few weeks of Uni so pretty free.

Any help would be very much appreciated, ty!

Ill answer some question, some others you can find yourself

Its a FD2R with a Mugen FD2R Lip Kit
Car Is Lowered
From memory those are 18's
try OTR Clayton for body kits

DIY becomes your best friend in the long run

I was surfing around ebay and found this. You might be interested in these body kiet. Pix are exactly the same

Nice wish list but IMO take the wing off

The ebay link is definitely not a legit conversion, i would get the authentic parts through a trusted site, they SHOULD come painted champion white if they were legit, then you can paint them to body match on your own.

The car in the OP is Nasif's car, he first introduced his car on 8thcivic.com, used to have the FD1/2 Mugen kit that we all know, his new look is so sick with the mugen parts..

It's gone though, he crashed it and it was totaled i believe.

[xHeartcore_boyx]
