Default Ideas for subtle mods to enhance the S looks

I love the stock look S but think it needs a little extra to give it a more aggressive look. Im not keen on body kits and the like.


Post up any pic if you have them pls.


Ideas.....
Smaller plates/plate surrounds/removing or changing badges/Lips/spoilers/wing mirrors

Debadging is a cheap start, lowering the car also makes a massive difference to the stance, making it much more aggressive.

The small front and rear spats make the car look more 'racey' and larger bore, either twin or single exit exhaust system.

If I was going for a single exit exhaust system, I'd remove the black plastic divider on the earlier model rear bumper, so as not to give the impression the car is meant to have a dual exit.

With the later model bumper, I'd stick with the twin exit choices, like the buddyclub pro spec 4.

I like the idea of a lip and removing the number plate surround at the front end to clean it up.

Front lip, low level boot spoiler oem shape or veilside,
Slash cut exhaust tips such as mugen
delete number plate holder

All of which I have

to look meaner

subtle drop does not need slamming
wheels replace or just repaint

Much more than this just looks tacky IMHO. Some of the nicest ones are the subtle changes like Mikeys or Phils2k.

De badged



Used one of the small Honda badges from the side to cover the front holes.
Rear was welded and re sprayed.

I also have a chrome grill bar, not sure if that is better or worse but I like it.
