if your doin looks, cut out the h4 conversion, but some diamond back lights off of ebay (like $30 somethin) then paint your interior (around $5 per can of paint [use only plastikote vinyl spray paint] i got primer for $2 though) or you could give me the money and you can have the satisfaction of knowing you helped someone fix up their car :D:D:D:D lol
some great ideas goin on, although i have a question, whats h4 conversion?

These: Click Me! (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=1498&item=1389984185&rd=1) They allow you to use h4 bulbs (instead of the old sealed beams, which aren't as bright), and look really nice.
good idea, fairly inexpencive
OH i have a question, i REALLY want to paint my car, maybe not soon but i do, ive thought of silver and light light metalic green, anyone got any other suggestions?

I've always thought black or Civic Si blue would look really good.

I might paint my car Civic Si blue before christmas
I'm currently painting my car all white (bumpers, mouldings, shaving emblems, etc.), and I really like that look. But a dark silver would look sweet on our cars too.

Sure you could do all those things listed above but then youd be missing out on all the sound quality you would ever need. :D http://www.bostonacoustics.com/ProductsPage.asp?ProductID=219&SpecID=4&SeriesID=54
