yeah a local parts store would be good like checker,autozone,napa,advanced, etc. will be cheaper than a dealer to but they wont be "HONDA" genuine parts

Pistons are like $50 a piece from Honda but I really don't think you need them. The rings are about $30 from Honda as well.

Here are the two sites I use when looking for Genuine Honda parts.

RE: looking for rings.

Where did you find them for $30 now is that per cylinder or is that the set for all 4 cylinders. Im sure the pistons are fine i probably wont be getting them unless they are shot.
