Question Dropping the TL-S

Hey guys. I am pretty new to this forum and I really do not have much idea about modifying a car. I am planning on getting the TL-S in April or May, but I was just wondering how hard / expensive it is to lower a car. If possible, I would like to keep the same wheels and rims (on the TL-S), but I feel like there is too much space above the tires. Since many of you guys have previous experience lowering a car (your TLs), could someone please explain how this works? What exactly is done to the car and how expensive is it? Does this void any kind of warranty that the car comes with? Any input is appreciated. Thanks guys.

$299 for Comptech springs. Buy them at Acura-TL.com and around $120 for installation at an import performance shop. These are slighty shorter, stiffer springs made specifically for the TL to work with your stock shocks. They simply replace your stock springs. Ride quality is maintained and keeps the suspension within factory specs so warranty is not voided.

After you buy the springs who do you get to install them?

Will these work on the new 2002 TL-S?
If so, what's the best way to order from this site? And how long does it take to get them delivered?
