If you look close, you can see my old car across the street, a green 1997 Honda Del Sol, which I sold to my neighbor. lol Since I live in the South, maybe I should have chosen "gloss black" which wouldn't soak up as much heat in this warm climate. Oh well, what's done ...is done.

I like it and I like black roof panels like that, looks good. I'm not so sure about that little Honda emblem on the hood though, better left for Jaguars and Rolls rather than Hondas, lol.

After I took my car into my Honda dealer to remove a nail in my tire, the head mechanic said my "hood ornament" was the talk of the entire shop that day. Now I'm not sure if that was a good thing or a bad thing!

You have inspired my inner creativity! I like the honda hood ornament

I think what Heartland was maybe trying to say is you have a Sport Touring and put an i-VTEC decal on a car that does not have i-VTEC.

Thanks for pointing that out. It has a 16-Valve DOHC VTEC engine. My bad (scrapes the "i-" off of the sticker). lol

LOL, at least youre a good sport about it. Hell, I'm so used to having a 10th Gen previously, I didnt even know they added VTEC in the 11th Gen until after I bought mine.

Why do you think this is funny? A lot of people tell me it looks great.

Look around this forum. I've seen people spend $30k+ on a new car and put pink seat covers in it. How about a black civic with aqua blue trim add-ons. What about all those who suddenly fell in love with "orange" just because Honda decided that was their choice for the new Civic Si? Then Honda had the audacity to put in "red" seats and "red" seat belts. (Ask any person with red hair how often they wear orange clothes?) To each his own I guess. The roof and hood ornament are what I want and they'll stay till my new color comes in - zebra stripes!

bahahahaha

Well I guess any attention is good attention , as they say. I like the roof, I just can't warm up to the ornament but it is your car and your money. I'm a bit older , maybe I am missing something .

Needs rain guards and led valve stemp caps. Perhaps some more stickers, basically anything with 3m tape as an install.

Your sarcasm is noted. MrPP - you have a bike on the roof? Hello, you're driving a Honda not a Subaru. Do you also take the pet dogs with you?

Bike on roof > ornament on the hood. It’s a Civic, not a 1990s Mercedes

I have a fresh vinyl wrapped roof - no bike. The guy criticizing me is the one with the bike on his subaru ... oops....I mean Honda. He has a photo of a bike on his roof, so if he flips his car he can just pedal home with his dogs. lol

I’m aware. I’d rather ride bikes in tight pants with a guy named Mr PP than be seen within a mile of all that “freshness”

Play with Mr PP all you want; You have your opinion and I have mine. Who said anything about "tight pants"? Trust me you won't be seen any where near my car after that comment.
