Damn parents (kinda long)
alright awhile back i got into an accident and my front bumper and a couple of other things were damaged i got a estimate that came to
817.68. About a month after that my car failed inspection cause of blown suspension i gather from my accident. so here's the deal i was going to use the money from the accidet to get my coilovers and new shocks and stuff because the stock parts would cost alot more well anyways my mom told my brother today that if i got my car lowered that i couldn't use her car to get around this is all because she thinks my car is to old to be doing all the things i plan on doing son now i don't know what to do. Get the stock parts that cost more and be unhappy or get the aftermarket ones and not have a way to get around and go to work i need help here what would you do.

Easy, get coilovers with adjustable ride height. Just tell the 'rents they are upgraded stock items, they'll never know the difference.

Hmmm, will Honda do the install if you provide the parts?
Not as easy as I thought......

dont take it to the shop... the suspension has to be one of the easiest jobs to do to your honda, trust me, even if you never worked on a car before, it'll still be a piece of cake
