3) HFP Front Lip
4) Apexi WS2 Cat Back

HFP suspension will give you about a 1" drop and it gets my vote.

You need all four.

If you're a looks guy get the HFP lip or the drop.

If you're a go guy get the exhaust, then the intake.

It should really be:
(exhaust + intake)(suspension + HFP Lip) = best result

Do the whole HFP kit if you can afford it, it looks way better.

Performance before looks

Exhaust/Intake/Suspension/HFP is the way I would go

I recommend the HFP sport suspension. It is a great system that drops your car about an inch and you can get it for a pretty nice price from Collegehillshonda.

I agree here, although I have no probs with folks going for looks first.

Wish I had the money to jump on the College Hills special

ya the HFP suspension is the best bet, atleast I feel it is. You will get that .8-1inch drop and honda will also install it if you can't.

Yeah I heard their install prices are pretty low on the HFP products.
