if you dont got the $$ for an SI, but want people to think that you have one, this is what you do

Yeah, the EX is cheaper than the SI, but I would laugh at someone, like I almost did to this guy, if he told me that he had an SI, but I saw the 96-98 front end and headlights on it. Any person that knows anything about the body of a Honda Civic could tell by the front of the car that it's not an SI. At least the guy was honest about it, but I think that he was only honest cause once I looked at it and knew that it wasn't an SI, he just told me to save face.
