well after trying to do my springs the second time around.....for those of you that dont know the spring compressor broke on us the first time and we had to put the one spring we touched bk bc we ran out of daylight.

well the second time we tried not only did the compressor close on my hand "left a chunk of my palm in it with some of my finger lol - not to bad but will be a b**** to heal". On top of this we had 2 nuts and bolts strip on the sway bar so we had to get new ones from Home Depot......

All in all the car looks great but i knew ude get a laugh out of the pic of my hand n tell me what you think of the drop....i will have new pics once i install the rest of my goodies and some nice weather

oh and thanks goes out to deebsr6 "brian" for helping me the first time and Sam "not sure....new v6 accord guy lol" for helpin finish it off today....oh and benny sams friend who helped put on my tires after i had a gimp hand lol

Another coupe with a splitter!!! Nice bro! Maybe it's just the angle the pic was taken at, but it looks to me like the turnbuckles are mounted at different angles.......

The MD2's look great!!!

Perfect example on how you can hurt yourself installing springs....

Im glad you didnt hurt yourself more, looks nice though!

I agree with ESP though, the hinges look off in that picture

It is spring isn't it... I'm on spring break, I don't think spring break is in winter I think we are going to have to rearrange our seasons soon because it's getting kind of funky. like move all seasons up a month or something hahaha

splitter and drop look really good.

So you decided that you liked the rims even though they weren't black
