Re: Finally dropped, new photos. (dialup?? give up now)

good stuff. ebay fogs FTW. i know, because i have some.. and they look like yours.. hahaha

adding a lip kit should make the car look a little lower, and yes. we've all heard about the roads back east. goood job so far bro. "slow & steady" is right.. no use going into debt.. you'd just be driving around angry all the time! haha

Re: Finally dropped, new photos. (dialup?? give up now)

I just got my tokico's and pro-kit in the mail! Can't wait until this saturday to take it to get installed. I hope that with the pro kit being a subtle drop it wont be too stiff. Want to be able to stay on the road.

Re: Finally dropped, new photos. (dialup?? give up now)

with the s techs, its a little stiff, but it sticks to the road cause of the blues.

why not diy the install. unless something goes wrong like the bolt seizing up in the bottom of the rear strut, it's easy as hell. and even the bolt problem was solved with a reciprocating saw. i'd recommend the diy approach, just make sure you have a spare lower strut bolt or two standing by, in case you have to cut it.

Re: Finally dropped, new photos. (dialup?? give up now)

I know what you are saying bro but trust me, I dont have the proper tools for the job in the case of an unforseen problem. Last time I tried to do SIMPLE shocks on my old 90 Town Car I almost killed somebody cause the bolts would not come off at all. Took it to the same friend I am taking the civic to and he had it off in 30 seconds. Besides that I am sure I would run out of daylight after work, and I do my work on the side of the street.

Re: Finally dropped, new photos. (dialup?? give up now)

yeah, screw that. if you got a friend that will do it for you, it beats the hell outta getting smacked in the face with a spring, knocked into traffic, and run over. that would really **** your day up.

Re: Finally dropped, new photos. (dialup?? give up now)

lol now you get it! I have no problem fudging with stuff that wont make me cry. Look for my thread in the 7th gen section of what I did last night during a thunderstorm with only interior lights. Always scared to do something the first time and then feel like an *** when it was easy.
