i feel like he knew what he was doing considering all the aftermarket parts i can see.
I'm curious on how much slower he will go because of this

Amazing.

Tho... Shocked no one mentioned the rfd chariot of choice leaving underground parking with a replacement/terribly aligned front bumper. #mindthegap

Also... Person who downvoted this amazing piece of art is owner.

EDIT: Jesus, I keep opening this thread and I'm still being amazed. Maybe this is Brampton Batman's backup?

Sweet bejesus, that wing looks like a sickle! You could decapitate someone with it.

$300 for the front dips, and uniformed color car
or $400 for the spoiler and make the car look patched up

Well, at least the giant wing is so high it doesn't impair rear visibility.

Some of you are pretending as if you didn't want to do this yourself when you were a teenager.

When I was young, I also did many foolish things on my car to make it appear "cool." I just laugh at it now.

Nothing remotely close to that monstrosity!
I own two of Honda's iconic vehicles and prefer a clean stock look.

Yeah, fair enough. I keep my cars completely stock now. Not even tints in my Camaro.

What Hondas do you have? Any pics?

Oh ya. Guarantee a poster above had a car with a wing, CAI, fart can on a 4cl, hood scoop that doesn't scoop anything, those silly metal foot petals, altezza lights, or lowered to the ground ecobox with smacked front lip car at some point in their youth.

I'm an original owner of a 2001 Integra Type R and the 2nd owner of a 2000 Civic SiR.
The only mods was a full suspension upgrade (springs, struts, control arms, sway bars)...no fart can or anything of the sort.

It's a tow hook that all the cool kids with civics are now putting on, for some reason..

But gawd dayum that wing is ugly AF. What a way to destroy an SI, if it even is an SI.. hopefully not just a badge

The blue balconies are a touch of class there. Goes well with the Si.
