Hi all was looking for some opinions on what to do
I'm thinking of getting a feels bodykit for my ek civic the only problem is my civic's a 2000 and the kit is for 96-98
the reason I'm after this kit is to make my arches wider so I can fit my 16x8's et20 with 225/45/16 rubber on them

First of all am I right in thinking to go pre facelift I'd need lights and bonnet as kit comes with arches ?

my options are pretty much to get custom arches done or to go for this kit and do a pre facelift conversion

let me know your opinions please and help me decide

Also if anyone can confirm how much wider a feels bodykit would make my arches at least 30mm wider each side is needed

advantages of full body kit would be probably more permanent where as custom arches could well break and cause loads of trouble

Do you mean that Feels kit with the bumpers? If so, I wouldn't be wanna found that in a Civic with a kit like that tbh...
 
I take it your referring to the kit in the image below?

Hmm tbh, 16x8 with low offsets can work with just arch work, if not then slight more arch manipulation can work (like what Wazer has just done).

Obviously if you want the kit, get it!!! I personally quite like it without the front/rear bumpers and spoiler. I think the front/rear fenders are quite smart.

So yeh, either be brave and different and get the feels arches...(but not needed)
or maintain and bit more OEMness and just get your arches worked:)
 
Or why not just get some J's racing over fenders or the 20mm wide fenders?
 
Where do you get 20mm wider fenders then would they be able to be rolled out to around 30?

Also with the feels kit I think the bumpers are wider to accommodate the wider arches wouldn't mind some vent like on the arches
I wouldn't mind the diffuser rear bumper yeah the front is a bit much but without the spoiler may look into getting just the arches
