Thanks! I agree she's sitting to high, and i really want the Motegi kit. where is the best place to look for one? Do they come up for sale very often?

I also need some advise from you lot on lowering. what sort of setup to go for?
I can get you a full set of OEM Motegi kit. :twisted:

First do the Motegi kit then do the lowering. As with lip kit it sometimes looks lowered. (if you get what I mean).

well im your best man for the job and only live down the road, i have lowered my old 4g lude and accord and am going to lower my 3g this weekend so if you need help i have all tools. mines coffee white with 2 sugars.

i had eibach springs on the standard gas shox lowering it 60mm on my lude.

as for sourcing the parts the shox and springs are readily available but the lip kit could be tricky, best bet is to hope someone on here is breaking a lude with the parts you need. there is a type s being broken up soon on here so perhapse you should pm him

Body work looks really good 8-)

Looks like the headlights need a wee shine, and the other bits you seem to have worked out for yourself already :twisted:

Yeah the head lights are pretty yellow but a bit of elbow grease should sort that out! Theres lots that need doing but i think its a good base! whole car needs a good polish and some bits of body work attention to make perfect. All part of the fun though :D

Thanks for the offer mate i might take you up on that when i get the finances for the parts. Any drinks will be on me :P
I need to check your 3g some time it looks real nice! ;)

I have done a bit of spraying before but i don't know if i could spray the lip kit that well :P
May have to pay for it to be done, or find one the right colour!
