Modifying an EK Hatch

[Strafe]

Hey guys,

I recently bought this EK Hatchback.





I want to improve/add stuff on it's exterior, specifically the:

-Front and rear bumpers
-Muffler
-Rims
-Fog Lights

Any advise on what I should be getting to improve it's appearance? Where is a good place to look for hatchback parts?

Banaue or Evangelista, siyempre.

For the front bumper, you could switch to the 99-00 SiR front bumper with foglights, and maybe get a black mesh grille (lots of those available).

Same with rims (SIR), but there are a lot of new Honda rims in the 15" range that look pretty good and should fit your car.

Muffler? Unless you want the fart can sound, look around and review threads regarding muffler, headers and car modification before you touch your exhaust system. And if the look is all you want, spending the extra money for a good muffler will save you a lot of headaches (from the droning sound of poor mufflers) in the long run.

Thanks for the response!

How much do you think an SIR bumper goes for? What would look better, round or square foglights? Should I change the back to SIR as well?

I don't know if the rear bumper of the sedan will fit. Alternately, you could try to look for Type-R bumpers, but they're probably hard to find.

The stock foglights of the SiR are round in rectangular housings. Up to you if you want something different. I don't know the cost, though. Some Honda boys who come in here may be able to help you.
