Hey guys....kinda new here but been lookin at alot of the pics here n jus wanted to get ur guys opinion on which body kit to get.
I actually dont have the car yet but planning to upgrade my integra to the 6mt tsx in white by the eom.
Looking at the oem kit at dealership, euro R or k style.
oem is attractive cuz could prob get deal at dealership w/car
k style i like
n euro R has nice jdm look
Im having a hard time deciding cuz i havent really seen any of these kits in person on a car here.......calgary

I guess you can find a lot of pics for each bodykit in this forum. Do some research. It really depends on your budget. OEM kit is a good choice IMO. Good price and Good Looking. You can probably get it for around 820 bucks not more than 900 USD shipped within US. So that's around 1100 - 1200 CDN.

OEM kit is great because it looks great, and is relitivly cheap...
Kenstyle im honestly not a big fan of, but look for TSX on DUb's car...hes got it
The Euro R is my favorite, but also pritty damn Expensive
The Mugen is Georgous too, but pricy as hell
oh and Both the Euro R and the OEM you can install yourself, w/ out much trouble

limited budge - oem kit
welling to spend alittle big more and a little bit more unique - EuroR kit
got some cash and want to be more unique - Kenstyle
too much cash to burn - mugen :D but it's great great overall quailty and styling ..
does it sounds better Saz ?

Hey man.............just get the OEM kit. You can order it from hondacuraworld.com prepainted and with it being OEM you know it will fit perfect without any modifications. I just got mine and man I love it!!

Anyone tried the replica mugen grills?
One guy here did.......i think it's a thread somewhere. He said they aren't that good. 1st time, fitment ain't right, wait for a long time. 2nd time.... not that good quailty, fitment wasn't that great either........
o have replica mugen grill???????

I have the oem on mine (white) and I think it looks great. Then all you have to do is lower it.

Diggz, I wouldn't buy replicas of anything. If you cant afford the original, save up till you can. Having experience w/ many different kits(I work in a body shop) I ca n honestly say that if you want one of those knock off kits to look right, you will spend more $$$ paying the shop to fit the kit than if you just buy the original. There's a reason that the kenstyle is roughly 2k and the knockoffs are 400-700, and that reason is quality. Also, if you are interested I'm selling my sideskirts and rear apron from my kenstyle. Email me at jonpfive@msn.com for details. Pricing will be very fair. Then you just need the front end and paint.

Yeah Quality is definitely a little lower on the replica kit, BUT not that bad. I have the OG Kenstyle on my car and i also have access to a replica. I will say this particular replica fitment wise is 95% as good as the OG. Quality is 80% as good. Nothing tops Japanese quality fiberglass!!!
