Well I don't plan on progress going very fast but a little here and there. My main goal is a "Show car" look. I want a color combination of Blue, Purple, White, and Carbon Fiber. I've been on this website for a little and gotten a few ideas to save money and look good doing it.

Here's a list of what I can see was done to it (I lost the previous owners list)
Vehicle- 98 Acura Integra LS 5spd
Color B74-P Adriatic Blue Pearl Clearcoat
Motor - Stock B18b1 DOHC Non-Vtec 103,xxx Miles
Spectre SRI
Shaved VC
PWJDM Purple wire separator
PWJDM Purple battery tie down

Suspension- Unknown lowering springs

Exterior- ITR lip
ITR side skirts
Capped antenna
Rain deflectors
8K HID's
Honda emblems all around

Interior- Skunk 2 chrome shift knob
Benen pillar bars

Audio- 6.5" Alpine Type R Speakers x4
Alpine CDE-122 Stereo

I bought the car with 96,xxx miles and just loved the color so I just had to snag it

What happens when someone recklessly lowers a car... Asians :( (No racism intended of course)

Thanks for advice you can give ahead of time trying to make this easy to read so I can get max feedback !

Also this happened last month

But due to me losing 3 tires since owning the car because of the lowering I'm thinking of holding of on the repair and getting coilovers instead. I got $891 for the damage and ideas for good DD set anyone?

Function and Form. The type 1s are $500. Idk how much the type 2s are but if you can afford them I hear they're excellent.

Yes, I'm torn between JDM front and USDM. JDM doesn't seem to really come I HID I believe ? I mean unless you wanna pay alot which " You gotta pay to play" But USDM is just easier lol.

So does anyone know where the best deals are for some F&F type 1's? I'm seeing 575 shipped which sounds good. If you know of a better price let me know lol thanks.

I didn't wanna make a new thread for this question but does anyone know of any rear X braces made for my car? Or can I use a civic one too?
