    SEIGE was always the next SUVman, and don't be silly hummer you're hondaboy lol :)
    Don't paint your calipers anything but black if you really are gonna paint them, they are way too tiny and underpowered to be showing them off with a flashy color.

    Either your springs are sagging, have fat friends, or are hitting dips and bumps too hard.
    I have not scraped at all with the Tein S probably cause they're stiff. I even tried it with 3 people in the car (including myself)
    Also thanks for the compliments everyone! I really like my car a whole lot more with the new height.

    yeah, pretty sure the springs are sagging. Would you suggest your setup?
    S techs + kybs were my option for susp before I started looking at coilovers.

    I would suggest it, but if you want more of a drop go for coilovers. But I dunno... everyone was like ride quality sucks when you're lowered. Mine improved, the car feels smoother, the only thing is now I slow down more for bumps and dips because going over them feels stiff, kinda like a rollercoaster making sudden sharp turns I'd say.

    Nice glare 1124RN

    Seige, definitely upgrade the suspension to S-Techs and GR-2s! You shouldn't be scraping or rubbing on stock suspension ever. It is old and should be replaced. The lowering/performance parts has better damping ability and stiffer springs, so you have less suspension travel and less rubbing, hopefully.

    But the Gtec front lip is 165 on ebay. I recommend staying away from the accord lip on a corolla

    The Gtec lip has terrible fitment. Although I suppose it couldn't be any worse than the REAR ACCORD lip lol.

    Isn't the gtec meant for the 98-00 front and not the 01-02? Probably why fitment was bad for you
