ive used plenty of products by skunk 2 used to have a partial sponsor ship with them when i had my hatchback.

they are cool i guess, but from what ive heard they are not the greatest coilover setup for these civics...
i dont know, i guess it all personal preference, i know the lowering springs for 8th civic dropped it tooooo low,
much lower then wat the specs were supposed to be

Do you mean that the springs are lowers than specs or that the coilovers are lowers? Either way I really like my skunk2 exhaust and I figured skunk2 is a good company to work with, plus their civic car looks pretty sick too

btw, you dont need power tools unless you are 6 years old.
