anyways nothing is worse than a kit at stock height, except maybe if it was unpainted.

DROP 1st
i did my drop first since i already knew how the car would look w/ or with out the kit on it.. personally cars with kits and no drops look weird when the kit is very large or aggressive... in ur case the kit u want will be a nice touch not too low.. the prokit really wont look like u dropped ur car at all unless u up the size of ur rims then i'll become more noticeable..

yeah drop your car and then kit it
btw, rethink about that kit. they spent 30 minutes today trying to find out how to get it on the hydraulic lift while servicing today. hahaha. but it's a fiberglass BW kit so i think WW kits don't hang as low + they're urethane.
damn i shoulda got a WW kit...

lower the car first. lowering your car is really something you're going to feel every time you drive your car. you'll love it, and it'll constantly remind you of how good an investment it was
a body kit won't do that. i mean you can look at it all you want, but it doesn't enhance the performance at all.. not to a noticable degree, at least. lowering your car will also make it look better.. A LOT BETTER. in my opinion, in terms of looks, lowering an accord will make a much better improvement than any body kit ever could.
thats how i decided to lower my car before anything else..
