You could use a front lip and some black house headlights. 
Joking aside.. has your car ever been resprayed? The paint looks excellent but it is silver so it hides shit easily.

LOL My back end is stock lol thats really high lol
The air freshner is a inside joke with my buddys..
Thanks for the comments guys!
And the paint is 100% original..doesnt show any sign of age... my aunt owned the car since may 1998 and then I bought it off her in August 2008. Its all highway km because she lived in niagra falls and drove about 65km to work and 65km back everyday.MINT shape still.

LOL, I drove around like that for 2 weeks. The S-Techs are a great spring for a daily driver. They actually feel softer than the stock set-up. Tein shows them as 246/168 lb. springs, but I don't know what the stock spring rates are.

As you requested:
The First Pic is when I was waiting for the rear Sezed Bolts and Bushing( Can't remember what it was called) and as you can see the rear is alot higher cuz only the front has the S.Techs.
The second pic is with all four Springs installed. Looks way better and the rear upper control arm never touched my wheels.
and thirds is just from another angle/side.
Enjoy and good luck with the install.
PS Im installing my Prelude Short Shifter tomorrow. Can't wait.
