Lowering your car on stock shocks is a terrible idea. For me it was not even a week before all my shocks blew and oil got all over my wheels. Ebay coilovers and kyb agx's give a decent ride and for me was about 350-400 bucks. or you could just spend like 600 bucks on form and functions. my buddy had them on his rex and they were amazing.

At the risk of sounding like a dick I happen to use that EXACT phrase in regards to blurry pics, sloppy handwriting, etc. Sometimes you can substitute Muhammed Ali in place of Michael J. Fox to really make a point.

Stop putting mods on it and invest in a good alarm w/ stealth install along with kill switches. If i have your si, i would leave it stock with the exception of a suspension setup and a good alarm system.

the worse thing you can do to that car is put a FUGEN lip on it. if it is not the real thing dont bother, the stock lip looks much more cleaner.
