Unhappy Accord Suspension, the same as TL?

Can someone please answer me, is Accord 98 and up suspension the same as the TL? I found out that Nex coilovers for a 98 and up Accord have a 2.5 in lowered shock and can be dropped to an incredible 5.5 inches. I was told that the car will lower to the ground and hit the ground before it bottoms out. Cool for us guys who really like to slam the car. I am ready to order the suspension I just need to know if they are the same.

No they are not exactly the same. The rear anti-roll bars are thicker/stiffer in the TL (compared to the Accord) and I heard the mounting points are also different. This is a difference I immediately noticed. There could be other differences too....but quite a few suspension components are shared between the TL and the Accord.
