ahhh yeah so def over 1.7 drop,
1.7 there is a 2-2+ finger gap in the front - no gap there...
nice job bro, hows the ride?
the great thing about coils is the act that you can keep an even ride height with the front and rear. get rid of that weird stanc that spring lowered cars have where is lower in the rear

the ride is pretty good, but i'm soo low now that i have completely stop at the tracks and just very slowly roll over them, plus bumps on the roads are a bitch now..speed bumps are a no no for me ..but it's all worth it because it looks great

can't wait till next season so i can re-order my Mugan Lip because i broke mine 1 week later after i put it on...but my Type R lip has been a champ soo far

i am just as low and have no problems, just remember if you have to think about clearance most likely you won't and its not worth the try... no scrapes / rubbing for me and lowered since darknights and just as low as you and my daily driver

gotta angle everything on a 45 and don risk ne thing.
when i enter areas i go as slow as i can, turn off my music so i can hear and so on railroad tracks i put hazzards on and roll over them. keep your eye on the cars ahead of you too - if they all of a sudden dip or jump slow down as s if it did something to make a stokck car jump your in for a jolt lol. avoid potholes, sewers and so on... but you having an eg an myself an ek shouldn't be a diff. jus gotta change the way you drive places you go, and how you get there.. lol
+handeling, tighter suspen, great looks
-everything else lol

3rd of all, you wouldn't know it's a civic coming down the road, you would think it's a jag or a beemer because of how sick those looks man...

anyways...i appreciate your comment non the less

get a wings west lip, the type R flares too much for the 92-95 body. i never really like mugen lips, they look like home depot lips with holes on the sides. why did you go with toms coilovers though? and i'm assuming you got tokico blues? i think you should've got something better because if they are blues, they aren't that much better than stock. now your next mod on the list, upgrade your brakes and paint those calipers black!
