Yeah, definitely hahah. Not going to go with the diamond mesh.
Yeah, I wouldn't mind getting your mesh Hondo but I can't seem to find anything. I type in mesh in eBay and I can all this random ugly crap.
Btw guys, I'm asking once again because I'm keen on doing this if it's possible. Do you think the Acura TSX (left hand drive) steering wheel will fit into Accord Euro (right hand drive)? I'd be using my own buttons and all but just the fact that it's still 'different' even though Acura and Honda are the same thing..

Man, they look nice, and they come with top mounts, too. I'd be curious to see how much lighter they are than the stock dampers. Have fun!

You will enjoy the new coilovers. What spring rate did you get?

I don't know what spring rate I have... Am I meant to know?! I'm noob :S I haven't gotten them installed yet. I hope sometime this week.. If not, the next
Hahah, trying to get there Ed! Next on the list, exhaust!!
Btw guys, do our cars have automatic headlight adjusters or something? Because I got some parts with the coilovers where I have to put them on if we do otherwise it'll screw up or something? I couldn't really understand the guy and I didn't want to keep asking him.. Damn communication problems!

^ Euronoob, are those Modulo side skirts and rear bumper boxes up there on post #89, if so, then we will have the same setup.
Check with the dealer, but I believe your Euro Luxury HID comes with automatic beam height adjustment.

You have to adjust again after lowering the car. I got only Springs and my lights were much to high after having the springs installed. I went to the dealer and he make the height adjustment for the lower vehicle. But not everyone I know who has lowered his car, have to do that,

I've heard from other Honda owners (DC2R, DC5 etc) that they ARE very stiff? Wonder how stiff they actually mean..
And yes, can't you lower the damper settings? I'll see for myself when I get them installed! Can't wait
I'm still young.. I don't think I'd mind a stiff ride.

I upgraded the spring rate on mine. Yours should be good for daily driving.

Will be another 305830458 years... because I can't afford rims LOL. But hopefully in the next few months, I'll have more things done to it.. minus the rims
Ohh alright. Still don't know too much about this stuff. Hopefully my cousin and his friends can explain it to me on Sunday. Cheers man.

And here's a quick iPhone pic I took earlier today for a member on another forum.
And @ICU2, I got it with a deal but when I worked it out, the rear went from $900 to $720... Still expensive as but better than no discount right?

I got them for $1,300 delivered.
Must be cheaper over there and thanks man!
Cheers buddy! Hopefully get some more proper photos soon when it's nice weather over here.
Hahah, this was 2 months of my pay Now I'm broke again.... starting over, saving up for an exhaust now. Still trying to decide whether to go a full exhaust ($1,000+) or just two Magnaflow mufflers ($200-$400) and thanks
FINALLY, COILS ARE INSTALLED! I can now feel every single bump on the roads.. I don't really mind it, but my passengers will hahaha. Going to leave the settings in the middle at this stage, wait 2-3 weeks then I'll start adjusting.

^ That is low.
Overall, you have a very nice package Euronoob. Keep up the good work. Don't bother with the full exhaust as it does not give any performance gain unless you supercharged the engine. That's the reason I installed the Magnaflow 4" tips on mine as the stock muffler is perfectly fine and all the sound I needed comes from the CTE Icebox, or Takeda in your case.
