good start for a youngster!
Dood, if you're bored one day, I'd say, get some lacquer thinner and get the overspray off your muffler, and then get some flat black engine painted and spray your fender wells to cover up all that overspray. It'll make the car look a thousand time better IMO.
Tons of good wheels are on the market, it just comes down to your price range and your taste! I agree, Flaken azenis are good tires.

i'm not a baller...ya heard?...plus, my parents got this as a gift...so i'm thankful for what i got...
just fyi, I'm guessing you got the replica "Civic Type R" lip off ebay, which is larger than the SI/CTR lip (I've had both). Did you put the lip on yourself? I could not get mine to fit without cracking the edges and having it look funny so I just bought the OEM SI lip (glad I did).
Car looks nice..although I love white coupes better =P. I wouldn't get any rims larger than 16" cause they look too big for the car IMO. Good luck with your project, considering how I was driving a tan auto '91 accord lx when I was 15 =P

yup, ebay lip...if you look close enuff, u can see the middle is sticking out...i need to find someone thats willing to part out an si lip and a rear bumper.... thanks
updated....
300 from earl schiebt cuz i was under warranty...but i seriously dont recommend it unless u need a paint job bad...
nah, i don't NEED a paint job. but i want one coz my rear bumper and hood have fiberglass and sanding straches (long story) on them. so instead of painting it myself, why not get a whole new different color. i am thinking of going with blue-gray metalic something.
just ask around ur city cuz there are people who work at the expensive shops dat do side jobs, that way you get a clean ass paint job w/o the price...
