Really like the drop & spacers. Transforms the look of the car. I say yes to the 35% tint. Is the carbon trim made from vinyl? Turned out really well.
Thanks webby! Yea the cf trim is just a vinyl wrap. i made sure to go around all the edges so you can't see any cuts.

I think the drop is perfect. Really should've came this way from the factory. Not low enough to scrape on anything but like you said, it does transform the look of the car. The spacers really help too. Reminds me of the stock BMW sport package stance. To me the car looks smaller and less bloated now than it did when I first got it.

Nicely done man! Car looks great. Classy, simple touches that add just enough. I love it. It's that OEM+ balance. I think the light tint on the windows would look good also.

Is that a chrome front lip on there? Any plans for that? I'm curious how well the finish holds up in such an exposed location. Definitely a lot of potential for chipping and dings.

Thanks man. Yea that's a piece of chrome trim on the lower front bumper. Honda really went overboard with the chrome on this generation. I thought about wrapping it in the cf too. I don't think i have enough material left over right now, but maybe when I get some cash later it'll do something about it

Yeah man. I'd be down for splitting a room. The lodging is the biggest hurtle for me, money wise. PM me your number and I can call tomorrow about getting a room. Hopefully they will have something available that is not crazy expensive.

I wanna be in too! I loved my 01'..... I kept it until the NE salt cancer got it. I would have bought a new accord but I couldn't swing it at the time.
