Ugh, man. Definitely remove the x from each headlight and return the inside lights to just clear lenses. Later, QD.

When are we dropping it a few inches?

Fasttech just look for a cheap set of coilover sleeves, that way you can keep your stock springs. I picked up a set on here brand new for $20 for my track car. The set I got on my car were free. Just look around, you can make any set work, as long as both of the sleeves have holes big enough for the shock body.
Shocks? Lolol. Later, QD.Quote:

Nice car. My very first car was an 85 accord. But it was a hatchback. Grey with grey interior but the drivers seat had been replaced by a red one.. So it was "The Pimp" seat. By name only of course.

Hmm, the struts will be a problem... I don't have a spring compressor. Might be able to cut them on the car, just a little dangerous, lolQuote:

cut them inside a tire so when it pops it doesn't go anywhere. I dunno though. Now that I got a job I probably won't even worry about it. Just sell it cheap so I'll some extra money for the integra.
The hail? I've never heated any springs with anything more than a $10 propane torch from Wal-Mart. Does the deed in about 30-60 minutes.Quote:
