Car looks nice! Just needs a drop and wheels and you're set

What did you use to smoke the tails, and how'd you do it? It looks really nice actually. I'm surprised no one else has commented on it. Probably the best subtle/cheap mod you've done IMO.

I'm getting my pinnacles done at auto links next next weekend, 30% all around on my BWP. Got in on the RFD group buy!

Thanks, I actually got the tinted tails done at Autolinks. It was between 3m on the roof or tails....and I went with the tails.

Probably not the wisest choice.

I would reconsider the 30 on the rear, just because it is pretty light at 30 IMO. Ask to see the different tints on one of the shop guys cars

Got the Eibach Prokit Installed over the weekend...Happy with the ride and the look so far I still have 1/8" to settle from reported 1" drop so it's currently 7/8" drop front and rear.

The ride is nice though very close to stock feel over bumps, handling is better, car feels more planted cornering.

Planning an Alignment in a week or so before the new wheels go on.

Before:




TSX Before Eibach Pro Kit




After:




TSX After Eibach Prokit Install

VMR V701 18x9.5 +45 Gunmetal
Finally was able to get the new wheels on after having to replace a blown shock with some koni's.

Specs:
VMR V701 18"x9.5
+45 Offset
235/40R18 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S3

Lovi the concave of the rims. Front stick out a little and rear are tucked a little. My Alignment in the rear is at a -3 degree camber which I'm struggling with the decision to pull the trigger on a camber kit.

Now to the pics:

They look tiny... I think you need more low! Looks good though.

Thanks I guess,

They were the exact same specs as Xtcnrice and cu2_dan.

I don't think I will be going any lower, although I agree it would look better. My 60mile commute per day and 26000 a year will be a killer as this is my daily driver. Same reason for 18's vs 19's daily comfort came into play.
