i know it does..thats when i just picked it up its still dirty hoping to go clean it this weekend lol. Been really busy with work and the family barley have time to piss. Thanks for the feedback guys!!! By the way quick question for you guys.. What do you think STOCK coupe side skirts are worth? or better yet im thinking EK ones as well... A guy told me $120 for oem coupe side skirts to much? or just right?

he said 17"s, too big for even a boosted civic, put on some 14"s or 15"s any thing light weight, heavy wheels plus turbo lag = poor acceleration.

yea, the guy that i bought it from did the mt. dew bottle lol, as for waxing it..prolly wont look that great its roll on paint..its not to bad but i would like to get it re-painted.

Also NO the side skirts were not new they were used.. i know thats rape prices..thats why im still looking for them but i saw a pic on here with a coupe that looked like it had EK skirts on it and i liked it very much so right now its just trying to make a choice at the moment.

By the way anyone else have problem with their windows rolling down??? Like my drivers side is being a pain and keeps slipping off and they are both hard as heel to roll up and down.. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Forgot.. the rims are 17" rota sub zero's and yes trust me i want smaller i want 16" RNRs or 15" rota knock offs witch are the group n's. I bought the care this way, i have alot to change slowly but surely it'll get there.
