From what several people have said it will drop a bit more with settling.

A 200 lb sound system in the trunk will do the trick. ![](http://www.acura-tl.com/ubb/wink.gif)

It comes painted. I put it on myself. It was easy after I figured out what to do... I took the pieces out of their huge ass boxes so I could fit the whole kit in my car and I accidentally left the instructions at Acura! Come to think of it, I'll post in the installation forum about it.

i think it looks perfect... like nate said, a system will take care of the back, let it seattle, slap on some 18"s not TOO low... like some civics..

I dropped mine with Comptech and the minute it was done it looks lower than yours by .5 inches. I don't know why that is. I did see the performance shop guys cut some yellow foam piece from something, maybe that's why? Anyhow, love the drop on my car, it looks much more aggressive now. Can't wait for my 18's!
UWTL, looks nice bro! Do you hear any noise coming from the rear when you go over bumps and stuff? I do and I can't figure out what the hell it is.

nope i don't hear anything. But it seems like a lot of people hear that. I even removed my front old rubber tubing from stock springs and put them on comptech springs. Hm. I wonder why yours is lower than mine? can u measure the hight of your front and rear fenderwell edges for me? The place where you would put the fenderwell protectors at, the highest point. Thank you!

It looks nice. Maybe I should go with Comptechs too... but I think 1.5" might be a bit too much for me though.
I guess it's good that the rear is a bit higher. So when you stuff your trunk, you'll still have some clearance left on the back.
