    You will have to buy a floor jack and small jack stands and take the rear bumper off depending on how far you got your car lowered. Its probably best to take care of any suspension issues before you put the kit on to save yourself a lil trouble

    that car looks hella nice. you should do this to your underhood. mine looked like urs a month ago and i got like a day all together into makin it look this way.i did it over a few days here and there the cleaning of the white paint under there took like 2 and a half hours . i think it would compliment your awesome lookin car vacume removeal was easy allso if u ever want to do that just got to pay attention where everything goes and plug every hole right. my car was noticlbly quicker aafter vac removal before

    bought some new stuff for the honda traded a guy some stereo stuff I had laying around and got me a tach.Awhile back I hit a rock in road and cracked rim an ruined tire so I had to get it rim welded an find me a tire.Finally found one used on ebay.I sure will be glad to have all matching wheels again.Also had to get a muffler broke the tip off mine on the cattle crossing in my front driveway.here is a couple pics:
