Did you end up getting those Louvers from the junkyard? That hatch needs louvers on it to be cooler then mine

j/p You own the best hatch on this forum IMO. Congrats :cheers:

I actually like hatches with louvers, but for some reason I dont think they are what I want for this ride. Now if I had another hatch and converted it to and SE-i hatch, that would look nice with some louvers.

06-07-2007, 05:20 PM
dude, get the louvers. their like little spoilers, but cooler. and they will keep the back end down when we get the turbo on.

LOL, maybe they would help me beat the turbo VR6 :thumbup: .

B18Civic
06-07-2007, 05:32 PM
yeah, i think you might need a little more than that to beat the turbo vr6. maybe a second honda that is black. and this honda could cut him off. i think it will work.

JHAAz

^The second Honda needs to have green neon under the car to work right though :rice:
