Honda civic body kits

For Honda enthusiasts, I've found an online shop for body kits and all other accessories that might be able to help solve you a couple hundred dollars. Body kits come in all forms and available through all makes. You might want to check it out. You may also want to check out other products for other models since I've only checked the ones for Honda.

Good luck.

Hood Scoops

Besides having an added aesthetic effect to a car, roof scoops add a bit of a performance boost. Properly designed scoops can add an easy 5 to 10 horsepower by increasing the cooler air entering the engine intake.

It is basically designed to catch the cooler air passing through the hood, and if placed correctly would help cool the engine down faster. It is usually placed at the point in the hood where air pressure is the highest in order to catch the most amount of air.

Materials also differ from ABS, to fiberglass and carbon fiber. As usual Carbon fiber would be the lightest but also most expensive. Improvements on performance highly depend on the hood scoop's design and positioning.

The additional performance boost would usually be felt at top speeds that's why it is primarily used in racing.

If you do have the extra cash, you may want to get this additional upgrade.

Dodge Challenger 2008

Jalopnik released images of the 2008 Dodge Challenger in action.

No doubt it's gonna be a powerful car to drive. But personally, there's something off. I guess it would be the design itself. The exterior looks like an 80's remake of something. Specially with the silver paint and red tail lights. But whatever. I'd still want one.

Aesthetically, it could use a bit of help, but then again it's still a beauty on its own.
