Not really feeling the black/orange theme. A drop and some front & rear lips would look better. Also the chrome thing around the grill, no. Halos, meh, if you like'em.

What happened to the sideskirt?

it needs to be lowered. and i would lose the silver trim on the grill, maybe paint it black. obviously you are going for show and not go.

other than that and the couple scratches i think it looks good

too orangie..

a drop will really help.. not feeling the rims though..
paint the grill or replace it with Si grill..
not a fan of black hood and roof.. and looks like it's all the way to the back..
get oem fogs, lip and valence..
projector headlights looks good but I prefer stock..

clean ride but need some work.. good luck on your project!

Hey look, a taxi! I'm just playin' man.
But yeah, I'm assuming you're going for show and not so much go too. Sorry if you're not.
In my opinion, and this is just an opinion, the only real thing Civic's are good for are to make fast. They weren't made for flashy systems and huge rims. (I really like those rims by the way, I'm just thinking the offset looks too big) I mean, it's a compact, it's not a even a mid-size, but they were given the option of really decent engines. So the only real option is to make them fast. And with a DX (still in only Double Digit Power Numbers), you need more performance.
To me, it looks like you concentrated on the Aesthetic side of building a car, which isn't bad, but it's not a show stopper. A properly built car will be well rounded. Try doing this: for every aesthetic piece you add, add a performance piece. It will even out your car. Because right now, you have to lug around a system and deal with your engine trying to get those heavy rims to start spinning.
I hope I'm not being harsh or anything. Good luck with your build!
