    keep that **** slammed and clean like that.

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.

    ...you CANNOT be too cautious on IA. Thats all Im sayin. Take it from someone who has first-hand experience.

    EDIT - oh, and definitely keep it clean and low.

    I would say raise it. I don't like the "tucked" look, just a 2 finger gap or so and thats where I like most of my cars to sit.

    Lowering a car looks good but, just like with anything else, there's a limit to it. It looks like you either cut your stock springs or got cheap E-Bay springs that sagged out. I'm not bashing your ride, since I find the car itself very clean, I just think that you're slammed too much.

    Just because he's dropped a little more than the norm doesn't mean he has cheap e-bay shit or cut his springs. He MAY have that, I don't know what suspension his has, but trust me, a slammed car is not always a result of cheapin out

    I never said that's what he had, just that it looks that way from a general perspective. A tasteful lowering of 1-2" can improve a car's stance and help it look a lot better by reducing wheel-gap and the like. However, a 3+" drop on an compact like a Civic just makes it look like you're trying too hard.

    This is just my opinion. If he's happy with it (which he seems to be) then more power to him. I just know that I would personally never drop a car low and I don't like the look of it.

    it is a nice drop, maybe 1 inch too far, the back looks crowded... but also eibachs dont go that low unless u cut them Or atleast I have never seen them go that low before. and if you paid 900 for eibach springs and tien shocks... then u got ripped off bad my friend.
