The headlights kind of get lost in all of the other mods.

I guess my question would be "Why?" but I know that it's all about being different. Too bad he didn't go for JDM lights while he was at it.

to have a projector Xenon headlights on a 2000+ Civic is pretty cool. There a lot better than the aftermarket halogen type HIDS that most people buy for there cars.

Heh, if that's true then I don't see why they did that. I would only do it if I got the benefit of having Xenons while driving at night.

No I'm not. Lets say you own a 2000 Ford Focus or a 2002 Impreza WRX, if you put a Philips 4100K HID kit in there, your going to have a huge glare that's gong to blind drivers. It's against the law and also the car wasn't made for HIDS, it was set up for Halogen head lamps. You either need to do a retrofit with a projector, or you will have to lower your headlamps so you wont have that much glare. Cars that come with HIDS, and they don't have a projector, still use a percise set up that has a "cut off line" and it wont blind any oncoming drivers.

Actually, that band on his wrist looks like the wrist band they use for show entry.

Overall, the car looks odd. It's not well integrated and looks a little too random. The lights are alright but seem out of place in the overall look.

that could be the TSX coupe!

that's why i still don't like civics, seriously every civic i see on the road is modded, which is stupid to me. not only does it give honda a bad image, it makes the honda brand cheap. plus, it's a civic, the econ honda, plus it's slow. while on the other hand i love modded 4th,5th, and 6th gen Accord coupes and sedans! :P

I'm not a ricer fan, my TSX is bone stock and will remain that way. I live across the street from a place that specializes in tuning imports. There's a slew of car brands there daily, and the dyno runs frequently. Being an old guy, I still find some of them, that are done right, to look pretty cool. Back in the day when I started driving, a V8 was about the only option available. We thought it looked cool to put 60 series tires on the back and 70's up front. Jack the rear end up a little, put a set of headers on it, and your stylin. Anyone remember Crager's? Well I do, and the kids today are just us old motorheads revisited. There making do with what's available to them. Older Honda's are fairly cheap in the used market so that's the brand of choice. The need to trick out a car seems to be alive and well. Instead of Edelbrock Hi-Rise and a Holley Carb, it's an Injen intake. Instead of Crager's and Firestones, it's Volks and Toyo's. It's a never ending process. Like it or not, I see a little of myself in the new gen drivers. I was the same way 26 years ago. Although, the thought of sticking piece of metal into my nose or lip or wherever never came into play.

I think I'm turning into an old fart or something... My first car was a CRX and I had lots of (rice)mods on it like the exhaust with the 2 way too huge tailpipes.
Nowadays I must say I dislike the ricelook... The front bumper on the car above is ridiculously big and aggressive in my opinion, but to each his own. In my late teens I'm pretty sure I would have liked it
