Umm..hey people.

Sup guys, long time no see. Hope everyone has been doing good.

I decided to swing on back by, give you guys a short update. The CL got wrecked 2 months ago. Some 18yr girl w/ a permit decided she was not going to yield, and slammed into my front drivers fender, and KO'd the fender, the door, my bumper, and the hood. I thought for sure I was getting a new car, that it would be totaled, but somehow, they didnt total it out and I went to get it fixed. There was no structural damage, they fixed the door , hood, and bumper, and just got me a new fender. They matched the paint up good, so now everything is back to new again. I've decided to just keep it, its still running good so far and its paid off, plus with gas the way it is, I dont mind having my lil' 4 cyl. I just put my wheels back on as well, if you guys remember, its the 19' C3's, but I did paint them black and leave the lip polished.

Talking about that, I need a camber kit, my tires wear out too fast if i dont have one. I'm too lazy to search, how much should a kit go for, whats the typical install price, and I'm assuming 94-97 accord kit fits out car right? Or maybe someone from on here is selling one, that'd be perfect. Anyways, glad to see you guys again, I'll post some pics at some point to give you an updated look on the car.

If I remember, my Eibach kit was $150 for the fronts, not counting the rears. Remember though, you gotta get them installed. The stealership quoted me around $350 including an alignment.

I've just been too lazy to do it.

you don't need a kit for the back, you can just use washers as spacers.

I don't remember what the fronts plus installation was.. I think I got a lot of shit done that day

Exactly why I refuse to get the rears done. Plus they aren't nearly as bad as my fronts.

I bought front Control Arm anchor bolts and rear Adjustable Upper Control Arms w/ball joints For my camber kits. It was pretty expensive but well worth it. I can slam it to the earth and still ride fine if I want.

Heyyyy its katana! whats up bro! I'd def love to see pics of the car. From what i know, camber kits go for about 150 for teh front, and theres always the ol' washer trick for the rears, might wanna try that.
