    Got them from THMotorsport.com, they are for a 92-00 civic. Some modification is required to make them fit. they were about 570$

    I dig the look man! Way to get creative with the coilovers, can't wait to see what ends up replacing the phone-dials!

    What type of modifications was needed for them to fit? Currently in the market for some Coilovers myself.

    for the rears: the fork is wider than the stock one, so you have to put washers in it to tighten it up onto the lower control arm. not a big deal very easy to do.
    for the fronts: the cup on the bottom of the shock body is too large to fit into the stock fork on the front. you can take the cup off of the shock body. i took mine off and machined them down to a smaller diameter to fit inside my stock forks.

    other than that they bolted up fine with the use of my original top hats.

    How is the ride handling with these coil-overs installed? I am considering this mod but hesitant as it seems most coil-overs for our rides offer a rougher riding suspension over stock. I am leaning more towards a set of H&R springs with a decent set of struts though

    tia!
