Built around the theme “cute and cool,” this EK4 Civic wears a deep-pink custom paint job that makes its original graphics stand out vividly. Body Shop Hirama shows what it can do with vinyl graphics: the design gives the car a dramatic look. The bold aero kit is by Weba Sports, with a somewhat masculine style, yet it suits the female owner’s car without losing its cute character. For the details, it has headlights with LED angel-eye rings and understated carbon-look Euro-style tail lamps, plus the requisite neon tubes. Its nighttime presence is excellent. It is hard not to be impressed imagining a young woman driving this super EK!
