Default Dropped car. Finally.

So, I finally got around to installing my stuff.

I'm rocking H&R Sport springs with KYB AGX dampers.
I went with DC2 springs instead of the springs intended for the EK, to get a slightly stiffer spring rate (as the 'teg is heavier) and I think it worked out well.






Yeah, my car is dirty and the pictures suck, but it's dark now and I'm lazy.

So yeah. That's pretty much it.

thanks for all the compliments guys...

so, bks85, I got a really good deal on the springs (free) and paid about $400 for the dampers.

Intallation was a breeze, except after I finished 3 corners, I snapped an LCA bolt and a screw off the top hat.
$8 for the LCA bolt I snapped, $19 for the top hat I broke, $40 to have them shipped overnight, and I had to buy a new lower control arm cuz my mom wanted my car outta the garage and I had a seized bolt in the arm (and Midas subsequently bent the arm getting the bolt out for me, morons)

Other than that, install was a breeze.

Oh yeah, spark, I actually rocked a limo. The Civic was just being moved outta the garage. Limo to prom ftw!
