Looking good Hayes! So now you're close to the ground and i'm driving up in the air with massive wheel gap. (haven't put the teins on the 05 yet)

If you've got more plans for the TL, I would vote to fit some custom mirrors on your car. Vision, APR, or craftsquare would be tits.

Noice! Mirrors would look dope!
I suggest spacers, it looks I sunken ship
I like it but it think it needs more of a lower offset. Maybe, 18x8.5 30 offset

re

Id like to know what was the main reason for you to get coilovers listed for an accord and not the TL like the Teins, etc.

Lower cost?

Do you also lose the strut bar with the other coilover kits or is this the only one?

Btw the car is sick with that drop but you should raise it so you dont end up buying a new exhaust or is that what you want hehehe ATLP

the reason for me getting D2's is honestly, i have only heard great things with them, my buddy got them on his EM2 not too long ago, another guy i know has them on his ITR and they love them so far. I know a couple more people with them and ive only heard positive things and the guy with the ITR has had his for sometime now
the cost was 936 for one day shipping to my door. i mean, either way if they were 936 or 1136 i was probly going to get them
and yeah, you lose the strut bar but im not too worried about that because i am wanting to get a better one anyway! haha
and nahh, i love my exhaust. i like the ATLP but its way overplayed IMO. it looks clean as hell, but idk just something about it, its a replica of the Type-S and im not going for that look i guess you could say. but i do want to know, since i am running straight pipe from headers back (no cat nor anything) would there be a way to get precat delete, or did i already do that haha
might be a dumb question i know, but i would like to get an idea haha


and eric, nahh you aint a bad idea, just have good taste my dude. got any old mirrors laying around you want to try out?
