This car stays planted whenever you go into corners a lot better than the base. The previous owner was an acura tech that had this car. The A spec doesnt sit way lower...It only sits .5" lower all the way around. The only way the A spec suspension looks lower is if you put an MT a spec suspension setup on an AT setup...that way they weight of the engine sags it down to wear it looks "dropped" and look more even. It is a popular swap for Azine people with base auto TL's. The Manual TL that comes with the Manual Spec A spec will have the front sitting a little higher than the front. There are locals with dallas with the manual A spec and stock wheels and finger gaps are about the same...Just my wheels throw the whole A spec thing off right now. I know I dont like them but they came with the car. I am getting rid of them for Enkei RPF1 just need to find a buyer.

    i thought about it being the wheels after I looked a 3rd time. The tires must be a pretty big overall diameter.

      Mine leaked on my accord too, so I just screwed the cap on tighter and called it a day. By the time I decided to change the valve it was empty.

                    Thanks now I am debating on some fogs...

                    Smoked, clear or Yellow. I am leaning more toward yellow but then I kinda like the smoked too lol. Decisions decisions decisions. The reason for this is 04-05 came with fogs fixated in the headlights...while the 06-07 had them in the bumper and the DRL. Anyway...this is the next mod just debating on color...

                    Sorry about the bay links
                    1. Smoked

                    2. Yellow

                    My clublexus buddies Zaino'd my car but he says he needs to do two more coats to bring out the shine also.




                    EDIT oh yea this is what the yellow fogs look like and the placement where they will go

                        It needs custom modification to the housing but they will fit. I have to custom the wiring also which is easy as hell on this car.

                            I am still gonna keep the fogs in the headlights...The bitch is since this is a bixenon setup my highs/lows are the same projector...The OEM fogs are integrated in the headlights which makes it look like my high beam is on all the time. Thats kinda why I want to put in the bumper fogs. As for retrofitting DRL's they have a module for them but I see no use for themm. I am just gonna leave the central lights the way they are so when there is "real fog" it will work properly. The fogs retrofitted in the bumpers are just aesthetic and for more projection toward the side of the vehicle.
