The members of blink-182 enthusiastically supplied meticulous design and direction for the all-new 2012 Civic Si coupe that they customized for the 2011 Honda Civic Tour. Santini Paint USA painted the car, recasting the car’s body in bad-ass matte black per blink’s specifications. Adorning the side panel are the blink bunny character and band signatures, while blink-182’s logo is splashed across the Si’s hood. The Honda Civic Tour logo offers a parting shot on the vehicle’s rear, and the exterior showcases Honda Factory Performance upgraded aero parts, including lower front and rear spoilers; larger side skirts; and powder-coated matte black 18” Lightning wheels by Konig with Toyo Proxes tires.
