Hey ppl, i was just wondering, how common is my rear spoiler? Not the top, but the middle one...cauz i havent seen another one wiv it...ive only seen Honda and GL badges in place of the spoiler on other models.

They were an option for all ED6 Hatches - but few people took them up on it. - maybe 1 in 200 EDs got it (and the armrest that goes over the centre console).

rly1: Peter at Hanny's performance has one for sale - but he wants a fair old price for it.

Personally I think it's at odds with the lines of the rest of the car - I like them sans-mid-spoiler.

My SiR rear spoiler looks nicer than them all :) Stuff the milo tin - get a dual pipe setup - looks better and fills the cutout better too :)

Hanny's is at Smithfield NSW.

No centre console, I can't find them anywhere other than the occasional one in the U.S. that goes for US$300+ (!!!)

Door visors as in the thin wind deflectors? Talk to CivicJim in the UK on automotiveforums - he can get them but they aren't cheap. You can also get them from the US.

I was planning on maybe getting the ES muffler from danny...wot do u reckon? would it even fit? bear in mind the rear zorst setup on these things are L shaped so the pipe from the muffler to the end of car isnt dat long...just worried that ES will be too long....if so...ill just get sum shitty fart cannon n whack it on diagonally...
Or maybe a twin bazooka like dis one...
Opinions n any help would be great

yeah thats how it goes..hence wen i said L shape.
Thats wot i mean by being afraid the ES muffler is too long...nah u dont need to modify brackets...u can just have the L shape shorted abit..like the old muffler (perpendicular to car) wont exist nemore cauz u will have it on the end..so itll just be a new pipe..u can have piping in shape of L. Just use old brackets n weld to new zorst No1 gonna see it, and as long as its held firmly n solidly to the under-chasis, its all good.
Im just finking of wot i should get...ES, cannon, or twin like those...

Damn Engrish - takes me forever to translate :D

You'll need to fabricate new brackets. Otherwise it won't carry the weight of the muffler's new location. Best I've seen is a twin exhaust that has an outlet on both sides of the car - but I'm going to a high-flow muffler custom made to the same shape of my original - to retain the original trumpet tips.

i notice more & more 4th gen owners :cool:

The previous owner of my civic had outlets on both sides, but got rid of it when he sold the car to me. As it is evident on the rear bumper with the 2nd cut-out.

Quad exhaust tips would look really good !

Oh....no i don't see that mid height spoiler much....if at all.

I don't like any of the twins exhaust, but one on each side of the back is symetrically good to me :D

The SiR twin looks good - but it has 2 trumpet style pipes rather than the penii look of the ED :D

Actually - one each side asa dual looks good - there's one out Dundas way like that.

you can change it to come out the passenger side fairly easily, just the notches in the bumper need to be modified. Otherwise dont bother putting a cannon on unless it petrudes out at an angle (gay) because if u have it come straight out it will result in a nasty 90 degree bend at the back of the cannon.

i think i hear that rice word again!
go 4 a simple muffler if you want better sound...sprot muff will cost u like $200 (tops) fitted...thats what i would do, because you dont know what you are going to be doing to your car, perofrmance wise, in a few months...
