We traded in our EK four door, mainly since they gave us 6,000 trade in and they are letting me strip it as well, and ive just always wanted one of these. Dont know what will get done to it. No big plans as of yet except for a double din DVD player, and headrest monitors.

i have no idea if it is stock or not, i want to take it off as well, but my wife loves it, and its her car so sadly it must stay. I tried talking her into one of the regular lower ones that i know is stock, and she said no.

I bet she wants Altezzas.

I actually think that wing is OEM because I saw it on some when my friend was buying a new one a few years ago.

Nope, already have em'. They're stock on IS's. She actually wants them gone for JDM ones.

JDM Altezzas? You must not have gotten the joke. I know what the taillights look like, like I said, my friend got a new IS a few years ago.

sweet... i agree that wing doesn't go with the car

Thanks for the input. This is mainly our DD. I drive my S to work, but thats only 6 blocks away. Not that the S isnt fun on trip, but this is just so more practical.

I love is's. Looks nice minus the wing. If she/you like it to each their own! Sad to see the civic go but... Is's are hella nice! The look awesome stock dropped. One of my friends has a graphite grey IS with black suede interior. Its slammed on Tein's with the EDFC. He has plans to supercharge it. Should be pretty intresting.

Im sad to see the civic go too, but for 6,000 trade in, and they let me strip it, im not complaining. Im not really planning on doing a whole lot for hp, but we'll see how that goes, i know myself all to well. As for the supra motor, i saw that and already asked her, but she said no.

there are some sweet turbo kits for that car. Not bad pricing either IMO.

OMG! thats very nice. Ive heard of the SRT kit around the IS forums, but havent seen their site. I dont think ill be able to do something like that for a while though. Since my wife is in school right now, the payments alone on the IS300 and the S2000 are taking up a LOT of our money.
