Which flex did you buy for it to fit? Did you have to cut some of the hood support?

Thats funny... cuz I got this from Tein today:
"The FLEX for EP3 will not fit on the EM2. Modifications would have to be
made, and the specs. are not right for the Coupe and Sedan. There are
development plans to produce a FLEX for your vehicle but release date,
pricing, and specifications are not yet available. Please occasionally check
back on our website in the near future for the most up to date information.

But what you are saying is that the kit goes in with no modification other than the hole in the hood support?

that is correct i got the coilovers from tornactive got them here within a week too....only modification is to the hood support....they dont go extremely low though lowest in the rear would be one finger front will go lower than that though hope that helps but there is someone here that has them from an rsx on his coupe also i think they are the same for both rsx and si
