CT Sport Springs are on way, any tips?

Should I cut the fronts to rake the car a little, or will it jack up the ride? I know what cutting the coils does, I was just hoping to have the car a little lower, and the H&Rs aren't due out for a few months, so I went ahead with the CompTechs since I like the RSB so much. My friend has CTs on his 03 CL-S, and it rode and handled great, so I am hoping for similar characteristics... Any advice on instalation? The RSB went pretty easily, but new cars I am unfamiliar with make me nervous underneathe, so was hoping for some coaching of what to do and how to remove the shocks and springs...

Thanks in advance!

Matt

i wouldn't cut the springs. i don't like the unbalanced look, either, but it's nothing you can't live with. i'd say put the springs on as is, and replace with full coil overs once the stock struts go.

I have not seen any good DIY's here on how to install a set of springs and shocks. There is a good DIY on another acura forum site. I would have bought a set of Eibach's before buying the CT's.

I was about to, but from what everyone has said on here, they are the same springs, and that Eibach makes the CTs... Doesn't matter much, its not that big of deal as far as I know. I wanted the H&Rs cause they lower the car more, but the guy in tech there had NO idea when they were going to be ready, and I am tired of it being minivan status...
