legend - I also have HR sport springs and am actually debating selling the spring / stock strut set up to go with ht spec1's not sure if you already bought springs and such.

I put spacers on my last accord to fit 07 SI rims and just didn't like spacers. But the flush look with stock rims does look really clean.

I see a lot of nice S cars on here. Proud to be a member of this squad

finally got my flat black UA7 squad stickers.. gonna slap them on my ride tomorrow..
installed the kp tech. window roll -up module (easiest install ever), id say it a nice add up and very useful.. i like to drive with my sunroof tilted up, and every time it starts to rain i just punch my fob close button twice from home and no need to run out.
also gonna swap out my 15/20 spacers with 20/25 need to roll my rear fenders though ... i went through so many spacer set-ups that i have every one in increments of 5mm.

25mm



last look of 15/20mm set up..
