I don't know why you will call it a piece!...... it's not bad! Lower it, front lip, get rid of the monster truck tires, and call it a day!

Wow.. an EX coupe is a great canvas to work on though.
Mugen replica lip? eh should've went with the 96-98 CTR replica lip; it blends much better with the front end. If the mugen replica lip you're getting doesn't fit and is meant for 99-00 i'll buy it lol.

an Integra Dual-bend shifter is a great addition to Civics; it beats the stock shifter.
Here's some links

I heard 92-94 prelude seats are incredibly comfortable so check those out

Lowering it + new wheels perhaps...

CTR / diy gunmetal housing headlights would blend well with your taillights

Ok. So in the next month I will have drag dr20 haven't decided 15 s or 16 s yet. I will have a front lip. I am wanting to get new tail lights ( red top white bottom ) I will be getting GC/ Koni yellows , and tinting the windows. Next I will begin to build the complete stock D16Y8

Great plans! It's great you're not cheaping out your suspension with <$600 unreliable setups
OEM Si tails then, right? How about a rear lip or mugen replica valences (picture below), or mudguards too

Same here, i just installed it last week and its amazing! If i'm right... all 94-01 shifters are the same except for the 00-01 ITR shifters which were stock polished.

itg depends on your budget and what your trying to get out of the motor
to make real hp on the sohc's boost is a must
if your looking just for a little extra power and something to work on then bolt ones will suit you fine
as far as the exhaust i have the yonaka cat bck and love it, but if it may not be as loud as you want look up sound clips on youtube you cant judge them by the sound of mine since the header and no cat alter the sound of it some.
