Default new to forums... accord corners, fog lights

hi everybody

well i just found this place a few days ago. this is my second post. i only wish i had known about these forums a long time ago

so i bought a 95 accord EX a little over a week ago. its white, 5 speed

i'm pretty anxious to modify the car. the first thing i'm going to do is lower it. i've already figured out which springs i'm going to get, its what i'm going to do afterwards that i'm working out now.

so i've seen a lot of clear corners in my life. the ones that are standing out the most right now are the JDM corners... the ones that look kind of black inside, and match the JDM headlights. i'm going to do the JDM headlight mod myself :thumbup: at least i hope...

i've only been able to find the corners alone at a few places. one place tells me that i need to modify the main headlight casing to put the corners in - cutting some part of it away. does anyone know anything about this?

my second question is about the fog lights. my car came with the factory fog lights. i like them, and i have no plans to change them anytime soon. but i'd like them a lot better if they were yellow. is there any way to just change the cover, or maybe put some kind of film inside, instead of getting an entire new set of fog lights??

thanks!!!!!!!!!!

1. You have to modify the bracket a bit, its not too tough. But hopefuly someone whose done it or knows the site that has the pics will tell you more

2. Get some ion yellow bulbs

thanks.. i'll keep this in mind for the future...

i was planning on getting either eibach the sportline or pro-spring kit.
right now i'm leaning towards the sportlines... how is the ride quality? since i'm not going to do any serious racing, i'd like to preserve as much of the ride quality as possible with the springs i get. i did some searching on this already, but wanted a little more opinions..

oh yeah, forgot to mention the camber kit... i probably will hold off on the shocks until i get some more money =P but i was looking at koni adjustables. probably red, not yellow, since they're a lot cheaper and i don't need *that* much of a performance upgrade. that and, like i said, the ride quality is kind of important to me. some of the streets where i live aren't too friendly also

whoever installed the factory fogs on my car did not bother to level their tilt... one of them points higher than the other. i can't figure out how to tilt them down, tho... short of removing the entire fog light and adjusting it separately.

i'll try out the yellow ions. thanks for the tip!!
