I'm trying to figure out a paint that's similar to bellanova white pearl but it's hard. I didn't see the pothole until I hit it, the road was a little foggy around 7am. I don't live in Fullerton,Ca so I would have never knew that the roads were this shitty. Riverside doesn't have deep potholes so I had lowered it about another inch but it looks like ill be raising it back up so it'll look like the pic I posted in the diy.

My heart dropped when I looked at it ):

Yeah id imagine. Grab the oem lip kit. Good as knew

I don't have 300 bucks sitting around, well I do... But someone stole my Spanish book and I have to replace it. Gaaaaah college problems + car troubles = sad owner

usdmJON

Yeah. And Im sure pushing that 300 for a lip is going to be hard.

Have you tried paintscratch? I just tried though and it has white orchard so some shit as the oem ilx white. Maybe try typing in your color code?

Sorry, I meant stock/OEM wheels.

Damn that was gruesome

SlaammedILX

Yes... 30 bucks for a little tube. I talked to a buddy that works at the acura dealership if he could get it. Can't believe I met an acura salesmen at a party lmao

Ohhhh... Wait till I slap on the wheels I have in store (;

Tell me about it. It wanders my mind 24/7... I'm just gunna slap a sticker on it if I can't paint match it.

Looks like I will be the third or fourth ilx owner to get on coilovers. I just purchased a Megan coilovers and will install it this friday. I was going to wait til I saved up for air bag struts but when I saw your car that low.. Hmm fuuuuuu lol jks

chinoxii

I will definitely use this coilover for my air ride next year. All I need now are bags and brackets plus the $$$$ for the install.

usdmJON

So did you buy the megan coils or are you buying these next year?

chinoxii

Bought it already. Hopefully I can install it on friday.
How hard is it to take off the rear spring? I remember having a hard time on the rears when I was installing my lowering spring on my 8th civic.

Rear springs?
Once I lifted the rear end I just pushed down on the hub and the spring came right out.
