Hey! Looks kind of like mine!

To tell you the truth, I kind of like that color. My dad has a 2004 civic just like it. I wouldn't complain too much either, at least you get the cool wheels! :D

I just got new tires... Make sure they're "H" rated or higher, it makes a huge difference in performance (I know from experience)...

Any other plans? Plans for Mods?

Unfortunately, my budget won't allow me to get an extraordinary tire. These are the ones I was looking to get:

As for future mods...um...maybe a Bazooka tube, new stereo, and speakers
(at least the 4, if not all 6). Other than that, I'll play it by ear.

By the way...what do you guys think of Bazooka Tubes? (subwoofer's)

Those would work, but keep in mind they make the same ones only H-rated, which is what you really want for our size cars. I have H-rated Traction T/A's. If you ask a tire shop or a Honda dealer, they will tell you that you need H-rated because anything less and the sidewall won't support the weight of the car (because they are so narrow). There is a difference. My second set of tires were lower rated, and it showed (the tires had a large bulge when properly inflated). Anyway, to make a long story short, it will be a little more for the H-rated, but you gain quite a bit of performance (I don't mean turbo performance, handling performance). I think my 4 mounted, balanced, and aligned were like $350 or $380. I can check when I get home if you're interested...

^that would be great...because I only have access to uh...$330 :( (would mean no spending money)

Actually, if all goes well, I should have a paycheck waiting for me tomorrow.

First thing that I noticed lmao

But hey man, half the guys on here barely have anything done to their cars, so you're swimming sea of stockers ;) But everything looks clean other then the alloy wheels. Good luck with your mods, and remember, we're here to help you with w/e you need on your car. :cool:
