Mods after window tint

got my windows tinted (35 front, 20 rear) and paid my car payment (till november) and wanna get something else done cause got a lil money

coming from my teg i told myself i would not lower my car. i had coilovers and i would always want it slammed cause i like the look. but i wanna lower it eventually soo....

im wondering for the brands of springs out there what are the ride quality. is it stiff? i want something to close to stock ride as possible with the biggest amount of drop. (springs only though)

what should my next mod be? i dunno where to go. i want the oem kit but i dont have 900. is there anywhere i can find the jdm front lip seperately?

thanks.

Have you thought about the A-spec suspension kit? You can buy it for $600 off an eBay Acura dealer. If not, then the Comptech or Eibach Pro-Kit are going to give a mild drop. Be aware, that you will eventually have to purchase a set of shocks once your stock ones give out.

Also, there is a good deal on the OEM body kit on eBay for $723 + shipping eBay

no not yet. there is many though, eibach, neuspeed, comptech, tanabe, espiler, and more. I wouldn't want to drive on the springs forever though, I'm planning to get aftermarket shocks eventually to stiffen the extra bounciness.

I've never seen the Comptech in person but the pro-kit drops the TSX pefectly. There is a slight rake and very, very little wheel gap. Plus you can pick em up for around $180

Hey TSXHondaTuner,

Can you post pics of your tint?
I want to get tint, but not sure what I wanna go with.
You got the front windows down too? Are you worried about getting pulled over?
I live in Central Valley of CA, but not sure how the cops are here, are they cool about tint in the bay?
