although i wish the 2/3 door bumper would fit it though. they look alot better in my opinion with fog lights, or even just the option cut outs

i get what you're saying about unique, i have a 94 purple coupe. i think hatch's have become overrated. especially with everyone having white hatch's with bronze wheels trying to be jdm

Some people actually race; the hatches are usually lighter than the coupes or sedans.

yes but there are also those who do it for looks. although theres nothing wrong with that, it's not very original.
My sedan isn't too much heavier than a hatch, like 100-150ish lbs. If I really wanted it to be light I would have stripped the interior, and not put a sub in the back of my car. I like having four doors though, it's makes getting five people in the car a lot easier.

I agree that having a 4-door is more convenient; but myself I prefer hatchbacks because there's more head-space for passengers in the back(I'm looking at 5-door's right now; mainly the Nissan Versa
) When stripped, the hatches can get much lighter than the coupe/sedans due to less reinforcement. 150lbs(which is about how much I weigh btw) can make a real difference; especially if your car only puts down 100whp.
Thing is; we're comparing two different things right here: a DD or even a show car vs. a "race" car. I DD my Civic but it's definitely not for convenience or carrying passengers; it weighs in at about 1900lbs(maybe even less) but gets excellent gas mileage and can beat some B16 and B18 cars

it's just getting a fresh coat of purple. i've got a small dent on the quarter and some clear fading to fix so im just gunna spray the whole thing.
Anybody have any ideas for appearance? I'm thinking maybe a lip, I like the way some fog light setups look, maybe some thin side moulding, possibly some tint. I am going to repaint the webs black because whoever painted them before me did a crappy job, I'm thinking I might just get them powdercoated black, not sure yet.
