Need Advice!!!
Ok I have a 97 Honda Accord SE coupe. In the near future I am planning on lowering it 2.2 in the front and 2 in the rear. Then I am going to put some 18" Racing Hart C2's. Now this is where I am debating. I need some opinions on a good URETHANE body kit that would look good on my car. If not a full urethane kit at least a urethane front bumper. If anyone could help it would be nice.
droppin it 2.2 and wit 18, make sure you get enough clearence and dont scrape your fender, ull need low low profile tires. with C2 however i think you should add a mugen lip, it adds alot to your bumper already and it looks good with RH
That is going to be pretty low. Are the streets THAT good where you live that you would ride that low and on top of that want to add full body kit?
IMO, cars look very sexy when they are dropped low... but what's the point of doing all that work, to do all the mods, and engine upgrades, and then slam the car to the floor so that you have to drive at like 15 mph all the time so you dont hit any bumps or dips hard enough to bottom out. So the slammed look is great, but makes everything else pointless. Unless you have super stiff springs and shocks, then I don't see that even helping to suspension qualities of the ride, rather than hurting them.
Parked car on air bags with the frame on the ground = humpably sexy
Car driving 2 inches from the floor = dumb
Xenon also makes urethane body kits, and they are nice.
PS. WTF did thooks say?!

well i was worried about the wheels rubbing the fenders with it that low and 18"s.. and i was also worried about it scraping everywhere with it that low.. i just want to close up that big gap between the wheel and the fender..lol..would lowering it 1.75 in the front and 1.5 in the back do that for me with the 18's...and how about the wings west w-type kit with Racing Hart C5's instead of C2's...With it dropped the 1.75 in the front and 1.5 in the back still make the body kit look low but not too low where it scrapes everywhere???

why dont you get the rims first.
Then see how much of a wheel gap you have and figure out from there how low you want the car to be.
I'm 2.5" drop all around on Racing Hart M6 (1pc) with 215x35x18 and not rubbing. Next is 215x40x18 though since the other one is kinda low profile.
I'm running Wingswest W-Type front lip and side skirt (lost the rear due to a rear ended 5 months ago). Mugen Rear apron. And also Mugen front lip as well whenever I like since I have two front bumpers, each with its own lip kit.
I like the way it is righ tnow

i have a urethane front and sides and dropped to no finger gap on 18s. i have no need to go fast and prefer driving slower and ball around haha. and now that i'm on 14s the front lip is 2in from the ground. i just drive on streets i know. no biggie once you get used to it
