Me too
Thanks Steven! Come to NC and check it out in person
And yeah, I didn't install those two pieces from the A-Spec lip. Pointless IMO.
Thanks Chip. I've thought about the Inspire fogs but it seems like my car is more uncommon not having lower fogs than having either the Accord or Inspire fogs
Plus I'm trying to keep the car looking like an original 04, especially since I have the 18x8.5 A-Specs. Of course the tails are from a 07-08 but besides that, everything is pretty much original.
Wow, quite the compliment! Thank you sir.

I know the feeling, especially rockin no fogs for the last month, I don't really miss them...I guess we'll see...because sometimes I DO miss the added visual interest that fogs Do introduce to the lower portion of the car. Since there is so much going on with the headlights etc...and the front is so high compared to the rest of the car, it's nice to visually draw your eyes downward to something.
About the pictures, if you guys start taking them, you'll see...they are quality, but when your'e going through your shots, you are MOST critical of your own work and if none of them jump out at you and make your dik move, you go "meh, this set of pictures is not great".

These pictures are terrible.
I don't understand why they're so terrible.
Stop taking terrible photos Tyler.

I took A LOT of pictures yesterday and only uploaded 47. And after PP and uploading, a few could have been trashed.

Here's a picture from this past weekend:
I'm rubbing the absolute shit out of my front fenders and gouging the tires. 235 on a 8.5" isn't much of a stretch so I'm going to have to remove the front spacers for now. I might end up buying new tires, probably 215s all around, so I can put the front spacers back on as well as reduce some camber.
Ideally I would like some all-season tires to stretch since I have the A-Specs mounted all year. Does anyone have any recommendations?
Also, I'm looking for some adjustable ball joints for the front since I'm running more camber up front than I am in the rear. Any suggestions? Or should I just stick to summer tires?
Thanks in advance

Car looks beautiful Tyler....sorry you having problems with fitment....
about tires, if you plan on keeping the aspecs on all year long, I would suggest some DWS's....heard they are great from multiple peeps....I know Steve has been on them for a while....and he really likes them....
plus they are lightweight

Thanks Anil! I figured I would run into some problems but I didn't think new tires would have to happen so soon 
Do the DWS stretch well? It won't be a massive stretch, just a 215 on a 8.5", but I don't want any issues. I might just get a set of stock wheels and run those in the winter.
Edit: Thanks Steven! No worries sir

Tyler, the DWS's are good year-round tires. They are supposed to have soft sidewalls, but I've never experienced any issues with them.
I'm sure you knew that Anil meant me when he said "Steve"......

Surprised you're having problems like that
235/40 on my 9" is rubbing slightly but not horrible.
What about 225/40 or 225/35?
J is on 225/35/19.

He's lower than us.
Tyler, raise slightly, ensure that front tab is fully cut back, it's the metal that's gouging. Drop back a to a spacer a couple MM thinner. Do Rock AUto for adjustable ball joints, ask Wacker, he got a set for SUPER cheap on there and they're all the same...
throw the grinding wheel on the dremel and smooth fender to bumper tab out so it's not sharp either. I bet you'll be fine for now. Don't run out and buy tires just yet...you aren't going to die, contrary to what Mitzi and yuh mutha are probably telling you!
And really soak in that picture you just posted. If you ever mention what you mentioned yesterday again...you will regret it. We will make sure of that.
