Lowering

I want to lower my 04, but I often carry around 5 people and a trunk full of stuff. And the ocassional trailer. Will lowering it then carrying all the people make it bottom out (I have never really bottomed out yet).

you must get quality springs then...

eibach will prolly be best for you. Tein also makes a good set of springs... but they will probably be lower than the eibach...

NO sprint, or any other cheapo ones from ebay.

Yeah, it should be alright. I'm lowered, and I've had 5 people in the car no problem... BUT, I use the "i'm lowered" excuse now to not have to give people rides...

Glaring blue HID bulbs are NOT classy, and don't make your car look nice, no matter what that kid in the Civic told you.
