I'd love to do that to my lights, but don't trust myself with opening them up etc. Looks great, the car is really coming together.

alright guys, coilovers are INSTALLED. decided to do a DIY with my friend. took about 4 hours lol
couple things.
1. i went with a minimal drop because this will be my first time driving a lowered car, so i wanted to get used to it first
2. stiffness set at 7 in the front(counting from the softest) and 10 (again, from softest) in the rear. handles great, less body roll, i might even go stiffer. right now it feels just a TAD bit stiffer than stock, so i wanna try a stiffer setting.
3. regret it. i wish i went lower LOL. maybe once i get my wheels and tires in, then i'll lower it more :)
with that said, here are the pics. i will get more pics and measurement later on when i have time.

Nice ride mate.. need a set of rims and change the acura logo on the grill please!! into honda once..and accord door sills
thats a nice camera u got there :)
The legendary S95.
^ yup LOL. nothing but a point and shoot haha
Looks good but you need to allow the springs to settle, so recheck them after 2-3 weeks as the springs will sag another 1/2inch or so.
i thought coilover doesn't settle much?
alright guys...here it is!
and the wheel is.....NOT f14s. i love them, but seems like almost everyone has them...so i decide to go with something different. my love for multi spoke rims (advan rz, volks ce28n, etc) lead me to these :)
introducing, 19x9.5 cf10's. forgestars originally only made these in 20s, but they decided to make 19s and im one of the first few groups to receive the new cf10's in 19".
i went with 19x9.5 all around, +30 rear, + 42 front. i originally had something else for the front...but i panicked and went with a higher offset to be safe. i also wanted to stay with 9.5 all around since "deep concave" begins at 9.5 width. after seeing people's set up, i think i made the right choice.
enough talk, here's some pics!
