It is dropped, we just can't figure out how low, if they're aftermarket springs and struts or just cut springs... maybe we'll figure it out this summer

yeah, it is dropped but not dumped, just the angles in some of the pics make it look normal height. I dont want to dump it cuz the roads here in Michigan are crappy and i live on a dirt road in the boonies.

hey how did you paint your red tails man! I want the tails to gloss like as if honda painted them red. Any insight for a noob with paint?

BDaccordguy

um to tell you the truth, i bought those off a member here cuz my old ones were messed up. But to get the shine i would assume you would just put a few nice coats of the transparent red then top that with a few coats of clear.

For some reason I feel like posting for Aaron since I know his car almost as well as he does... :P

They're 16" Konig's.... I guess we could pull off the Rear-disk brake conversion this summer, but that might interfere with the Weber conversion, what do you think Aaron?

It shouldn't interfere. The swap only takes 1.5 hours for the knuckles and brake cables and then 45 minutes for the proportioning valve and bleeding the system. Real easy swap to do and makes the car look soooooo much better. The only problem is sourcing the stuff.

well, that would be cool to do, but that would require me to get some different winter wheels cuz mine are 13's and im not sure if theyd clear.

somebody dented my baby tonite :( . on the bright side, it looked like it did more damage to their car by the amount of taillight left on the ground. the dent isnt anything major, but it cracked that rare paint so now im gonna have to get it fixed before it has a chance to rust. also on the bright side, i will be able to fix the other spot where it got a tiny ding last year so i guess its all good. I just wish they coulda waited like 4 more days to do it cuz my car is gonna be in Import Life Tour this weekend, now sporting a new dent.

It is so sad when you get a dent. Its more annoying when the people dent ur car and leave - its fine for them, they dont have the repair bill...grrrrr i have several little dents in mine, not happy
