Maybe try getting the full kit without spoiler first and drive around for a few months?
I like the Modulo wing, its sporty but still discrete.Quote:

Nothing wrong with getting the mugen wing. Just cos every 17 yr old will want to race you from every light doesn't mean you have to grace them with your participation.
For once I have to agree with IAMVTEC (don't get used to it ;) ), that the wing might affect the resale value. But the rest of the kit will too. Few want
to buy a modded car. I'm still going to rice the civic up with the kit on the FD1. But I know I won't be selling/trading in this car for a very long time (will likely go to wife), so I'm not worried about resale value.
Just FYI my planed mods are the full kit, foggies, rims, tint, lowered (be it coilovers or some shock/spring combo), and when I feel comfortable with the vehicle eventually CAI (Injen looks like a strong contender).
But nothing further than perhaps a double din with gps nav... but we'll see.
Reliability FTW
Love the mugen look over modulo. Not planning to sell my car unless i strike lotto. Going to do some mods like MarkCivicVTI. Dont have any of the main mods yet like exhaust or rims. Next mod for me would be the eagle eyes with HIDs
I wonder if it's worth keeping my Modulo spoiler and swapping it back on come time to trade in, and then selling the wing seperately for some cheap price since it's genuine Mugen and factory painted.
Ill probably let mine go for half the factory price but dont really care if i sell it or not. Also i wont be selling my car any time soon. Will probably hang on to this car for the next 5-7 years depending if i win lotto or have some spare cash lying around.
i think, the most important to consider is ur circumstances.Quote:

mugen body kit (modulo too) without wing/spoiler still looks nice :thumbsup:
im sure grandpa would dig the mugen wing... hes young at heart im sure
my dads asking me to install the wing, he wants it on more than i do. so it isnt just 17 year olds:P
can we swap "father " ? lolQuote:

elegant style or sporty style.
basic rules 4 elegant style : no wing, politely bodykit
maybe I add another option? dunno what it called, but the 3rd option i see is when you put 20s and wide custom bodykit to the civic, with a very very low spring (kit touch the ground) and of course, a lot of bling2 :p (not that I like them though...)Quote:
