the nismo is just riced out there are under 50 different parts from a sport package and you can build a better faster car than a nismo for less money.

And on another note the new way to rice out a car is to buy a dodge charger or ram and but hemi decals on it, when it only has a magnum. They are worse than the civic guys with that. Yea man it gots a HEMI... or not

This is what im talking about. Not sure how if u know cars u can call the nismo rice. I've yet to see a kit that is as clean as the nismo or that flows with the lines of the car. The amuse kit maybe but there are certain things I don't care for on it. RICE race inspired consmetic enhancements. The nismo is not that. Its all functional.

the problem is though, that the genarl "public" does not know the difference betweek a functional/ non functional cooling vent...

or that a spoiler serves function at higher speeds....

Nothing like an oversized Tow Hook on a 4 door civic. I mean the dam thing is so big you could use it to tow a mack truck.
