i say try the rear yourself. You don't have much to lose...worst case you have to take it to a shop. Take your time and do lots of measurements and get the right materials.

i just got to remember i have less clearance in the front now. but thats a good problem to have. it only scraped on the bottom so you cant even tell. i think this is going to be my most favorite mod yet.

your gonna have to be really carefull with that new lip. The key to not bottoming out is to zig-zag down steep driveways.

What are you waiting for!?? We want to see your car NOW!!!

I used to have a honda accord with a body kit on it, and i litterally had to get the front bumper fixed and repainted more than 4 times!

Im so glad i have my CL now cause to me it looks so good just lowered that im going to leave it this way.

Yup. I heard they make this kind of rubber stick-on stripping that can go underneith a body kit/lip kit to protect it in case of bottoming out.

When i had my honda i was in desperate need of this but no matter where i looked, i never found it

I think a lot of cars in tuner shows have them but im not totally sure...

lol yea your right. in my opinion if it aint the TL kit i wouldnt even bother putting on a kit. if ron jon would have made his kit to look more like the TL kit he would have made a killing. everybody on the cl side would be rocking kits.

i heard you can put weather stripping on the bottom of the front lip. That way it takes the beating.

yea I know well it was just the bumper and lip. It came out great. Now I can tell that the car has faded in color some over years now that the bumper is freshly painted.

Theres a solution to that. It's called a paint correction where you pay like $300 to get your cars paint buffed out for over 8 hours. I had this done to my car to freshen it up and it litterally looks new. No swirl marks.

Heres an example:

^ Its not swirl marks, the paint probably faded over the years. The reds Honda uses have a habit of fading faster then any other color they have.

no, swirl marks are always present and they make the car's color look duller and lighter
