Just bought A-spec suspension
Well just ordered my A-spec suspension from Falconis Acura. Can’t wait to get it and slap it on my car along with 19 inch rims. Oh the wait is just killing me.

Congratulations. Just wait, you will enjoy it, guaranteed, especially after it settles down (takes a few weeks).

Oh I will 
Might be like a week and a half before I get the pics though. Suspension doesn't show up till Wednesday or Thursday. Also need to get the rims painted but I can't find a place that will do it yet.

Orangecream, I am getting the rims painted gloss black to match the car. I tired to get them powder coated gloss black but they said they couldn’t do it. It had to do with the polished lip on the rim. They said they wouldn’t be able to make the line that transition from polished lip to the black part of the rim perfect.

I haven't decided on tires yet. But I am definitely going to get a 245 put on. I wonder if I could go 245/35 and not rub. They guy that sold me the rim said a 245/30.

A-Spec Suspension Self-install
I have been looking at the A-Spec Suspension kit and was planning on doing the install myself..
I have a fair amount of mechanical ability (althought I am nervous about dismantling my new car), but have never tackled a suspension swap-out. Looking at the kit, it looks simple especially with the coil-overs already assembled. Has anyone tackled this?
What are the obsticles? Do you need to re-align the car.
PS. The kit comes with the A-Spec badge.. should I put this on?? My gut says no, keep it simple.. what do you guys think? (I have the body kit and wheels)

If you've got the whole package, I say slap on the badge. The badge itself is pretty classy and doesn't scream RICE ROCKET. As long as you don't put a Type-R sticker on the car, you're good to go.

since it is the only part of the aspec kit which actually makes a performance difference.
