Where did you order those side panels? The only ones I found are on eBay, and they look really bad.

I've thought of doing footwell lighting since i bought the car but just haven't had an initiative to do it!
I also didn't want to get any super bright lighting for under there as it just distracts from the road. I've heard they are average to below average output. I guess I'll find out.

I've looked already and seen people say tires, cold air intake, and rear sway bars are good first ones, but I see people say don't put exhaust, I want one and was wondering why people say that and I don't know what companies are good for the mods I see talked about

Sounds like you need to do more reading in the exhaust/tuning sub forum

Summer tires, lighter rims, better brake pads/fluids and a ECU flash. Spend the rest of the money investing in being a faster driver.

This ^^^ and the "being a faster driver" part means track time, racing school, and stuff like that. Go autocross with your local club, go to a real dragstrip and do some bracket racing, go to a Friday At The Track (FATT) session, whatever. Just get off the street and go have fun with the car.

Although a sporty-sounding exhaust is fun, too. But it can kinda piss off the neighbors and mother-in-law...

Ok, I'm not looking for an overly loud exhaust either just one that is a smooth loud that isn't going to piss off everyone on the street lol

Hmm I think some of the Civic Si owners have removed the reasonator and had a exhuast that is slightly louder and deeper. That is a cheap way to go but not sure about drone.

Well there's definitely stuff I'm going to do before thinking about that, I can go without an exhaust thanks though
