To Aspec or to coilover???
Just wanted to get my ziners opinions... Which would you do Coilovers first or Aspec Kit?
Its a tough decision for me because Ive been really wanting a coilover set up on my car but at the same time I feel like my car is incomplete without the Aspec kit.

i bought the Aspec suspension for my car last year cause i wanted to keep my ride quality pretty much stock but give it alittle drop, which it definitely did! but then i put new wheels on it and the wheel gap was horrible in my eyes. so i ended up getting ht spec V1 coils. paid the same price for both those suspension. Wish i went with the coils at first they really are awesome! good luck on whatever you buy

I apologize guys I did mean Aspec Kit or Coilovers...
Im leaning more towards coilovers first, everytime I see my wheel gap I get alittle disgusted. For some reason I feel like the money is best spent on coilovers.
Which did you guys do first?

On my 2006 WDP TL I had the A-Spec body kit put on by Acura, then 2 months later my son and I installed Tein SS coilovers. My son learned alot. I managed the install with instructions, my son did 80% of the install with his friend helping as his runner for tools, etc. I dont think it matters. BUT IF you live where you have been getting snow, maybe the A-Spec body kit would be better first, then a few months later put the coilovers on. I highly suggest the inproved version of the Tein SS coilovers, They are AWESOME
The first time I lowered a TL was my 07 Type-S, I had a shop install Eibach Pro springs---MISTAKE. I DIDNT LIKE THEM AT ALL except for the looks. $250 for Eibach springs, $200 to install, and $180 to have them taken out. $630 WASTED!!! In My opinion. I LOVE TEIN SS COILOVERS !!!!My Avatar picture is after S-Spec body kit and used 19" RJ wheels which I sold soon after. I ended up lowering the car with Tein SS then bought AXIS HIRO 19" wheels. PURE BEAUTY. I LOVE the 2006 A-Spec body kit !!!

once you get the aspec...you'll be dying for coils.. and once u get coils.. you'll be dying for the aspec
so just buy both together and make ur car happy
I bought mine a month or 2 apart... but I went with aspec 1st and didn't regret it.

I agree wholeheartedly with you here... A very good friend of mine has a 05 S4 and what just a drop did to that car is amazing he's still on stock S4 rims but the car just look better looks more pronounced
