So since I acquired my 18' SI sedan aegean blue last April, I was already prowling ebay for aftermarket mods. There's so much available out there to do as far as putting your personal touches on your SI's has now given me much dilemma on what direction I would like mine to look.

I would love to temporarily wrap my hood with 3d carbon fiber vinyl as I am saving up for an actual SEIBON hood. With me ordering the vortex wings, type-R spoilers, front splitters and side skirts, those will be wrapped in carbon fiber too. I am now wondering if I would like to carbon fiber wrap my roof and trunk lid too? Seemed like a tall and costly order for me on the planning but I will see where this will eventually lead me up to.

Are you guys the same? Being a bit undecided on how to make your SI look with all the mods available out there?

eBay mods; doesn't sound very classy.
Stuck up much? ;)

Here's a few of the "un-classy" things I like that I purchased on eBay for my EX-L ...

eBay is hit or miss. I bought a catch can there, and the fitment was meh but it was 1/4 the price of others. I would be wary of some items on there, but most cosmetic stuff you can't find any where else. Also, I'm disappointed you didn't pick the shuriken tail lights.

I have them on order. OK, actually I don't.

Ebay and Amazon have quite a bit of cosmetic stuff and like you said, it's somewhat hit or miss. One little tip. If it's from China and is attached with 3M tape, expect the tape to be counterfeit junk. I always have some legit 3M acrylic automotive tape on hand to replace it.

Yeah. My vortex wings came with a roll. Though I have not installed them yet. I will be investing on the 3M double adhesives. Be getting quite a long one too!

I bought the ebay mirror caps they don’t cover the whole mirror so I never installed them and it leaves a little gap between the mirror and the cover. Little too much for my ocd

The link is in the post. I was editing/adding it while you posted your comment. I'm anything but stuck up.
