My Honda Accord

i got the red/clear taillights from a guy on the accordclub.com board. his name is lightningd, or TiAccessories on AIM. And yes, the all reds are illegal cuz it turns your reverse lights to red instead of white. What spring/shock combo did you go with when you lowered your car?

that's what i was afraid of...how much were your lights? i think it was nittany's car that i saw altezza style with carbon fiber housing that looked awesome but i'm pretty sure they dont make em for the 93. the ragular altezzas look nasty. i used h&r sport springs but didnt put on any performance shocks, i recetnly had to get shocks cuz when i got the car it had 78k with no records so i got monroe sensatracs from mavis to hold me over. once these get worn down i;ll be looking into some better ones....any suggestions?

i paid 140 for my lights. they were easy to install and fit good. As far as shocks, Tokico Adjustables are good, but Koni yellows are highly recommended...but they are pricey. i have Tokico Blues and theyre kinday bouncy. When these go bad, ill probably go with Tokico Adjustables.

Okay i have a stock 1991 Accord...i was going to get a Xenon ground effects kit...and i was wondering if you know if i will need to lower my car to make it look good or if it will look okay with just that. Thanx!

[Verse914]

definitely lower it

[Kappasocer08]

How much are we looking at to lower it? and how much should i lower it? and what all do you have to buy to lower it?

[Nyyman51]

if u want it to look like that pic u're lookin at a good 2 in. i have h&r springs which are great and pretty cheap. springs are anywhere from 150-275. get shhocks too, i'm not sure about price or what's the best for that. if u go lower than 2 in u're also gonna need a camber kit which is another hundred or so. just be consider where u're gonna be driving...potholes could be a problem if it's too low

how much r u lookin to spend? if u want to lower and the kit it's definitly gonna be more than 700...why would your speedometer change?

[Verse914]

I my is lowered 2.2" and I dont need a camber kit. Everythings cool. I paid $430 for the springs and shocks and did the install myself.

[Verse914]
