Check this out!! 56K.....maybe

This is my ride....






Now, I am not planning on dropping it anytime soon but I am planning on getting the full Kaminari lip kit with the oem spoilers.

I'm also thinking of either repainting it the same color or a dark metallic grey.

I need you opinions on whether I should go with this plan (lip kit w/o drop), and stay with black or go with grey??

Please don't tell me to drop it because we have really crappy roads in this island and I'm not really thinking of dropping it.

thanks.

Personally, the Kaminari lip kit is a bit too aggressive for my style. If you like the lipkit style, but a little more aggressive, go the Honda OEM route. It is however, what you like, not me. As far as the paint scheme goes....stay black....but then again I am a little bias seeing that I own a black coupe as well.....

whoa MYK1013 long time no see. if you figure out when you want to drop your ride let me know. I have to return my ride back to stock height in the near future and my setup is pretty much in good shape.

i hear what you are saying about not dropping it. But if you get some tokico blue struts with some decent springs, the ride quality is actually improved.

I am using the Tokico Blues with H&R springs. It is about a 2" drop. and the ride quality is amazing. Even though it is stiffer than stock, i believe the ride is more comfortable. Also the performance is much much better.

and to add to it, i took my mother for a ride when i took her out to lunch the other day. Even she said it was comfortable to ride in. And this is coming from a woman who drives a C5 corvette every day.

Yea I have the same set-up tokicos w/ h&r's man i just love the ride, handling is just amazing. no body roll (i have rsx rear sway also). but ride is a little bouncy with my 18's..hehe but it was fine when I had 15''s.
H&R's are 1.3'' drop all the way around for our cars, but i think it is a little more than 1.3''
***defenitely go for the suspension upgrade before anything else
