no lah. the bodykit if looks unique and fits the overall style of the car
then no prob... also the finish must be of quality... not like got big
gaps here and there and use cheap plastic. and then if wan to mod dun
overdo it... some people just like to get big big intercooler mounted on
the bonnet... yuck... and those rims... man, please put rims that LOOK
NICE ON THE CAR... and not without the car... see so many cars mismatch
with stupid looking rims... and the color.. please match it lah... dun
mix a white rim with a black car. so stupid lah these people.

what`s wrong with white rims on a black car?

Have you seen a black civic EK9 (coverted or ori, doesnt mater), with
white spoon rims before?

Would you be so kind as to post up pics of your car, with your tastefully
done up matching rims for me to see? even better, for all to see?

ah beng? Those with blue led lights, blue interior dome lights, cheapo
undercarriage neon lights, wound down windows with techno music pumping,
toothpick in their mouths, ciggy in they hands hanging outside the door,
giant spoilers, big & noisy exhaust, funny chrome rims, potong springs,
zig zag over speed humps, tailgate other road users, etc etc...

Tastefully done cars are pleasant to look at, nothing overdone and
courteous drivers behind the wheel... Personal preference really.

well nlko, hmm i must have overstressed my point. Yeah there are some
white rims that goes well with a car, but there are some that doesn't.
However, seeing an all black car with white rims running on a highway at
night... you think that is beautiful? I don't.

what i define as non-ah beng is cars that have very subtle mods - not too
flashy, but very distinct. Take a look at promote. Now that's what I call
nice.

as for my car, its a 100% stock saga. I don't mod it cause I am not goin
to spend money on it just yet cause I might be changing cars.

what's with your statement "so stupid lah these people." ? Watch what you
type dude.

condemn here condemn there, before you condemn any further, first take a
look at what you're driving now.

calm down nlko, do you consider that we are condeming? We are giving our
opinion. No "song" arr? No need to argue. What is your opinion then? It's
jus about personal taste and feeling. You can stand with your (I suppose,
but there are lots of Civic with white rims I dare to say) taste and
others might not.

Soggie is driving a Saga which can be simply dabao by a bicycle. And he
can stand on that. His car is 100% stock look, he can sand on that. He dun
like to mod his car (or he couldn't, sorry soggie), he can stand on that.

So, what does it has to do with you? Or you might just start a new
tread "what is considered a crap car?". Then you can give your opinion
then tiu kaw kaw lar. Why so angry?

Driving a Civic so glamour mer? *now I am starting to hurt someone* Can
you enjoy the fun of racing with bicycle? Never ler?
