For some reason when i think any pink trim i think white car, id say go with green... Everything else sounds perfect, as for coilovers they are cool since you can adjust the height but think about if you will ever want to do that because when you do youll need to get alignment each time, also quality coilovers are a lot more money than springs/shocks. You could even just get lowering spring on stock shocks and maybe get away with it.

what do you know i got pulled over last night for one of the first times in this car, first time when i literally was not doing anything... got driving without license ticket, but i was able to renew my license on my phone while he was writing the ticket, so ill just have to see how that plays out in court lol... dont even ask why im stupid and did not have it renewed.

lol I am definitely going to take your advice about the car so I will be happy to show it off again. I didn't even think about the many alignments I will have to get if I do the adjustable ones so I'm just going to go with the lowering springs.

Told You! Honda's are like targets. That's why whenever I see a cop I let them go in front of me so I won't have to deal with them pulling me over just because I decided to drive today. Your car might also be flagged by the police and I am nosy so please let me know how everything goes.

Not really a SI conversion when all 99-00 Civics had the same front end Not lame, I prefer the 99-00 style actually.

Just find a shop that does lifetime alignments and pay the extra fee. I paid $160 for mine about 4 years ago when I bought coilovers. I have gotten it aligned at least 4-5 times since then and it doesn't cost me a dime.

Going to buy life time alignment tomorrow, so I can get these new tires aligned now, once i get my LCA bushing fixed, and once i get coilovers, $160 here too.
