Love your drop but not a fan of the rims but whatever floats your boat. How much of a drop did you get?

Like everything but the rims, I like the crome just not the style of the wheel. Glad to see another blinger on here besides me. My first thought "very clean"

How much were those coilovers?

i like the wheels. chrome wheels always go best with black. Overall the car looks really good and different. Like the mesh grill too.

I got the coilovers and the struts at the same time it was 699.75 to my front door. Then spent about 3 hrs installing them. My only complaint is with these i can't even come close to bringing it back up to factory ride height (not that i want to but in illinois we get lots of snow so i just bought a jeep)

Funny enough the main reason why I bought my cl is to garage my civic in the winter.. but now.. I'm thinking about garage my cl and getting some si rims and snow tires... LOL but I"m still thinking I might give my civic away.. LOL...

laso
that is the original bumper. I have a friend who works a a bomb-ass body shop and we cut out the plastic inserts on the bottom where my fog lights used to be. I went to auto zone and bought an apc universal mesh grill we gave it 2 solid coats of clear coat and cut it to fit. We glued it in and now that shit looks tight.
The yellow bulbs i've had them so long i don't remember exactly where i got them I know I ordered them from the same place I got my clear corners. But any local auto store should have them .

thanks katie it looks super tight in person, and even better hitting a corner throwing bling everywhere. When I put tire shine on the tires i can only get half the tire then i have to move my car to get the other half of the tire out from under the wheel well.

Hey VTEC97, you ever had any problems with that plate inside the grill before? No cops mess with you in PA?

Anyone else have their plate inside the lower grill or someplace else? I hate the way the plate looks on the front of the car, but don't want to get a ticket for taking it off.
