How about fixing the fat crack on the windshield?

Performance is one thing, but aesthetically you have to take care of the basics first, I would say.

^^ i agree. I had a few rock chips in my winshield that i got after i tinted it so instead of ignoring it i got it fixed and it made all the difference in it. Having it look real good but not fixing the things that keep it safe is not smart. Make it right and then make it tight

i dunno if u have the OEM lip kit but i would go ahead and get that first and make it look nice especially with the drop...im runnin the same suspension u got and my TSX wheels look so much sexier now...people dont even realize their stock wheels and ask what kind they are and they even think their 18's...lol..

The ATLP is 950.00? Wow, that's way too much. Anywho, if you're looking in to an exhaust that would sound good and wouldn't break the bank I would look into the custom magnaflow setup that plenty of guys on here have done.

If I could do it all over I would do that and be set. Like others are saying though, you definitely need to take care of the cars basic needs. I wouldn't want that crack in the windshield getting any worse.

if ur going to do that get the front first it is the single most hardest piece to find for the oem since 02-03 front lip is different from the 99-01 so it makes it tat much harder to find. the sides and rear u can get from any 2gen year and that would be fine

it looks ok with just the front. if not just store it lol. but yea if u can get the front first. good luck. u can get the sides and rear in the fiberglass form which is alot cheaper and since its the sides and rear u shouldnt have to worry to much abt it cracking. but the front you should really try and get the oem one
