Eibach Prokit

Just lowered my car this weekend with the Eibach Prokit.
I don't know how to post multiple pictures so here is the link to all of my pics so far.

Hey, nice ride!! I really want to lower my car this spring, but not sure how the ride quality will turn out. Please let me know how it goes. Are the wheels slanted inwards at all from the drop? I'm thinking if I do lower, I might need a camber kit.

thanks!

If you scroll down a bit, there is a crappy picture of the hood trim, but its the best one I've got as of now. I just installed it and the weather has been really bad here lately, so I have been unable to take any pics during the day. Hopefully it will be sunny one of these days, and I will be able to get better pictures up. I will post them ASAP.

As for the springs: The car drives much better IMO. The car handles much better around turns and is just more fun to drive now. The back wheels look a tiny bit slanted, but I am hoping that a simple alignment will fix that. From what I have been reading, the Prokit is not enough of a drop to really require a new camber kit, but we will see. I will let you know as soon as I get my car aligned next week.

Hey, Abrams

I just lowered my car this past weekend, too. Installed the Prokit. It definitately gave better handling. The most important was the ride quality was almost the same as STOCK spring. I love it.


WoW, saw you got a "Phase Racing Fiber Glass Sport Grill" coming soon.
My Mugen Grill also coming soon, too.

On the topic of painting...

Abrams: does the trim piece come painted factory colors?

Bender Unit: does the Euro-R body kit come painted factory colors?

Thanks

You just give them the paint code and they ship it painted and ready to screw on

As Bender Unit stated the Mugen grill and the Phase grill look very similar, the only real difference from what I can see is that the Phase grill comes with no logo on the grill where as the mugen grill comes with the muegen logo. The person who has the phase grill shown in the link that Bender Unit posted, just bought a euro-r emblem and attached it to the front.

Thats where I ordered mine from.

Hey, Abrams
how hard is it to replace the stock headlight set with JDM's? is it a direct take off and bolt on?...and we can still use the stock bulbs right? (HID, etc)

thanks

The lights are direct replacements, however the front bumper must be removed in order to get to the screws. You do not need to touch the bulbs in order to install the lights.

http://web.njit.edu/~mxl4729/other/index.htm

Go to that page and click on Acura Tsx on the top, there are pictures of the installation of the lights. That picture is of a Nissan Maxima that my neighbor destroyed one night up at school.

I paid $250.00 for the grill shipped to my house in NJ.
