    just do it yourself. Its probably one of the easiest things you can do to a car. I have done it on a RSX, and the engine was pretty tight. Took me about an hour which included removing the front bumper. It may take the average person who has never done it about 3 hours or so, but it only requires simple hand tools.

    lol i gotcha... i don't know what shops would charge but if its more than say... 50 bucks... do it yourself. cause honestly, you can even go to wal mart or something get some cheapo tools.. rachet and socket set maybe like 25 bucks, screw driver set like 15.. and 10 bucks on some beer... tada! intake installed, more money saved, you've got more HP, cool sounds when you enter "vattack mode" lol and you've got a beer to celebrate with.

    AutoFab Motorsports will do it. I know it will be more than $50 though because it will be more than an hour job for a cold-air on that model. A non-cold air takes like half the time. Most shops charge at least $75 an hour these days so look to spend at least $100, but you will know that it was installed by a professional with skills only obtained by years of working on cars and doing installs.

    their hoods are so light it wouldn't even matter. it would just be for looks.

    I think you can get the factory lip/body kit. Looks nice, or you can get whole mugen front end. Those things are sick as f*ck!

    go through honda...expensive but yeah it is color matched.


    you could always just buy the front end and go to honda and just buy the paint and get a shop to put it on and paint it for you. thats what my friend did with his rsx when he got a new bumper, side skirt, and rear bumper

    I seriously doubt it comes pre-painted but I might be wrong.

    ah, $3,800 PLUS installation for the entire HFP package on the '07 Sedan: wheels, springs, muffler, and aerodynamic kit (front, sides, & rear)...not sure what the Mugen runs.

    A 1" drop shouldn't effect the camber much (that's what the HFP spring is).

    whats the difference in the muffler than the one that comes stock on the si? mines loud enough and as far as the hfp body kit i would prolly only get the front lip
