Thanks Red... I actually went by your DIY after reading it like 10+ times lol... only difference between mine and yours was that the Gen 5 has an extra rod/control arm thing that I had to unbolt... but other than that, it was a pretty easy install. Just time consuming... especially with the compressors

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.
Thanks for the comments, guys. Yeah, its already begun to settle. In the back, the fender gap is completely obsolete. The very top of the tire is actually hidden by the fender. In the front, there is a little less than 1 finger of space left in the fender gap. I like it! The ride is pretty good overall, but of course with a lowered car, some stiffness is expected, which is there. I feel the bumps in the road more, and its a little bouncier, but handling has improved dramatically. It doesn't handle like a boat anymore And of course, I cut down the bump rubber (bump stop) a little bit to allow for more movement along the strut so that I wouldn't bottom out all the time. Overall, I'm very pleased with it. Tein did a great job at keeping a stock ride as best as possible.

Wow! that's a pretty nice drop. I'm thinking of cutting my bumpstops too, now. You're right tho, once it settles there is no gap left between the tire and fender, gives it a clean look especially w/ the IS wheels. Wish I had your balls to do it on my own-keep it up bro!!!!Peace=)!!!
