yeah I went through a debate with myself and friends before i just decide to do the lip, lot less expensive and looks just as good. my friend had a drift kit on his last car and trust me it was nothing but a pain in the ass, well tat was partially cause shit always happened that would rip it off and he insisted that we one peice it to the body...
I've done a good deal of bodywork and kits just cause problems, a lip is nice, modest, and goes on a lot easier.
Tengoku that is a beautifully done civic you have there, how much did you pay for the h22 swap? and as far as the tach goes i think it's a nice addition because the car has the balls to back it up
