My shocks are stock. They will last a good amount of time considering our cars are pretty new, I do have to baby it over most bumps I drive over.

WHY is that? this is the 2nd year of the 8th gen and i've never seen the aftermarket respond so slowly to parts for a Civic for cryin' out loud! the DC2 and DC5 never had this problem when they came out! Even EG and EK were flooded with product.

I'm ready to buy a full aftermarket suspension!

I'm guessing because they're available in Japan.

I'm debating on HFP suspension or sportlines. Which one should I get?

HFP isn't enough for me. I'd go with sportlines for springs. But HFP is suspension.. its apples and oranges :x
