Got the Koni shocks for $480 shipped off Ebay.. Bought the GC from HT for $315 they are the Limited Edition ones... than I bought the top hats fromWeksos Industries for $260, but you really don't need the top hats, but if you got the $ i would defently buy them 8)
So the Konis and the GCs fit? I called GC and they said the limited edition coilovers don't work with Konis. That's why I didn't get them.

Not sure about the teggy but they work with RSX-S. I haven't had that combo. I used to have Skunk2 w/ Koni Yellow and G/C w/ Tokico Illumina's

Yeah I've heard the same thing. My friend with a DC5 had the Koni/GC combo. His Konis blew and he ended up getting some Progress coilovers.

What the hell did he do? My friend put 25k bery hard miles on his gc/koni and they were in perfect shape when we took them out. And it was hammered on the ground...like 3" drop or so and the Yellows still held up

Well only the fronts were blown. Let's just say he was mad slammed to the ground. He doesn't even touge or track. Just his DD. Lol!

Tein Basics ride and perform quite well but they adjust ride height through the spring perches which reduces travel. They also do not have adjustable dampers
What you mean by reduces travel?

And you think there are any better coil overs for the same price or less?

When you lower it further down by lowering the threaded spring perches it partially compresses the struts reducing their travel, making them less effective, and making it easier to hit the bumpstops.

Oh okay I get it. I probably wont go over 1.7 drop so it shouldn't be that much of a problem..

However, I do have a left headlight problem. A while back I let my "friend" drive it just once, and we ended up hitting a small deer, witch pushed the headlights in, breaking a gray plastic piece and causing water in em now.

Heres a close up of the water and pushed inwards.

And here idk if you can see put its pushed back becuase the little gray platsitc piece snapped and the other one the metal is bent upwards

Heres a close up on the right sided snap of the plastic peice.

Took it too the body shop and a new factory headlight thing is like 6-700 bucks, and like 300-500 for an aftermarket once that looks the same. Any idea's on what to do or how to fix it? Or were I can get a whole new one for cheap? idk to much about that drilling holes and filling em crap. I can almost bend the metal back for the low beam headlights, but the high beam thing is a gap were the plasic broke.
