Default accord coupe EX V6 too LOW!!!

i just bought this car used/salvage but repaired. no description at all of what the springs are.... there is a black widow body kit on it, plus at least a 2" drop on it. im having a VERY hard time accessing driveways and parking lots and going over speedbumps... any suggestions on driving, suspension? thanks

You could always ditch the bodykit.

Part of your problem is that body kit, but really you have to learn how to drive a lowered car. You'll get used to going VERY slow and going at an angle over speed bumps and angled driveways. You can always get some springs/coilovers that offer less of a drop as well.
