StreetKA Stfu, if you don't like it then don't look at it.. It's my car and that's all I really care about. eneffex, yes she leaked a bit and the frame was totally off, spent couple days pulling to finally get it within a few MM. But seriously... Why do you guys hate it so much? i didn't put 26's on her, or a boxy kit... everything I've done is clean and tasteful.. i didn't throw a coffee-can exhaust on it.. It's one thing to give criticism but all you guys are hating on me.. like sorry I may be new and its not done but seriously...

6mt swapped..smart
dude...it's because you're RICING THE CAR OUT. We like tastefully modded cars here, not gawdy circa 2000 body kits, hood scoops, and vented fenders.. Did you recently wake up from a 10 year coma?

Listen.. If you don't like my car then just shut up and watch the progress. Yea granted my kit is a little bit on the tuner side and the vented fenders/pulled hood aren't OEM but its mine. I put my blood and sweat into customizing it. Isn't this what this website is about? I'm not going to beat on the car and I'm going to treat her right. So honestly, go bitch somewhere else.

Really guys? You're all going to bash him over the work he's doing? I know I'm new here and I don't really know anybody yet but now I'm not sure if I even want to. I thought you guys would have a better attitude towards someone who is putting all this hard work into their car to make it their own, to make it unique. How about instead of just saying things like "it's gonna look like zombie crap" you say things like "This might not be my style but looking good! Great job so far!". I'm part of another car forum where if someone posts their car with a body kit or something not everyone is crazy about, we don't become douchebags about it. We tell them that it's not really our style, but we sure as hell don't bash him like you guys are doing here.

I will say I personally don't like the body kit, but you are being a little harsh street. I think he got the point by now.
What are your plans with the car?

why would anybody else car make you want to get rid of your own? and if you have a practical answer to that, then what's holding you back, guy?

I appreciate everyone sticking up for me but it's my car and I'm not saying "LOOK GUISE I GOT DAT SPINNRS ON DIS SHIT"... like seriously .. Putting a kit on it makes you all become assholes? Granted, you may not like it but I do, to give me criticism is one thing but to just bash my car and shit? Fuck you. And Brian, I plan on getting Coilovers for the car, Cold air intake, replace the old rotors, pads and calipers, new headers, exhaust. Granted, these may be cheap and not that amazing mods but being 19 and a full time student, it's kind of hard.

Hey General,
I have a custom double spoiler that would be right up your alley and would go good with the rest of your stuff.
I'm not joking either.
But you would definitly get flamed even harder.
It would give you the full pimped out ricer integra look

I think the sentiment of those disapproving of OPs mods are because they are from the school of ground up vs looks first. I believe in form follows function. Aesthetics are subjective but in a community like this you know there are unwritten rules on what is and what is not considered "rice" like it or not. To each his own and to each his own opinion.
I just feel bad for the damn car, it fell off a freakin lift, what kinda shop was that guy running.

Not being associated with douchebags like these and the car becoming more affordable to people who have piss poor taste would probably make me avoid a vehicle.

You know what? You guys are so twisted.. Am I using daddy's money? No... ITS MY OWN, NOT yours, not anyone else's but MINE which I worked for and saved up to buy... Let me make you guys happy and make it stock with cheap ass aftermarket rims you found on craigslist. Honestly, It's my car and do I care in the what you guys think? no... I am making the car how I want and that's all that matters. Like it, Love it, hate it. It's all the same.

General_Enemy, just ignore these people. A lot of the people trolling you in here are typically very ignorant about what they say. I personally am not a fan of your kit either but at one point I was into mods similar to that, so if you like it then keep doing what your doing and do what you want to do despite what other people say. Also, glad you were able to save this thing from the lift
Just keep an eye on the auto tranny (they aren't the best on these cars) and you'll have yourself a nice reliable car

I guess you've never went to a meet where people have similar cars (say an Acura Meet), then you get those young douchebag kids with their daddy's money bought car reving their motors and doing burnouts in parking lots getting the meet shutdown by police.
