I have been wanting to black chrome my housings but that is apparently hard to do and do it evenly. If I ever decide to pull them apart again, I might try it.

Ah ok. I used the night shades for my reflectors too. Your pic editing made it seem like the whole housing was slightly tinted :tup:

Have you put rear spacer with your wedssport?

Would like to know?

Since I rolled the front fenders, there is no more rubbing and our roads are terrible around here. On a nice smooth surface, it's no issue.

The front tire size is stock and I wouldn't want to go with a 35 as I like the meaty look of rubber on my rim.

I did end up going with a +15mm spacer on the back to make them a 0 offset wheel. I would like my rear to sit a tad bit lower (maybe 1/4 inch) and to do that I'm going to take out one of the perch rings.

I'll probably do this next week... I'll put more pics of it then.

Thanks! :hello:

I looks like he went with a 15mm spacer in the rear.

Thanks Kaien..

Yes, I have a +15mm spacer in the back with the 10.5 +15, making it a +0.

Just got back from IA 2011 and the Alabama roads destroyed my new Stillen lip... AGAIN!

So not I'm lipless once again... and I don't know which one I want now. I'm certainly not going to spend a ton of money to only have it get destroyed. I guess it's a good thing the Stillen lips are inexpensive. :-/

But... I did manage to get this shot before the carnage.

The remains of my Stillen front splitter... #2.

Boost_lee 07-21-2011 02:38 AM

Wow, I just finished putting 11 bolts and washers on my Stillen lip. I felt reassured until now...

Rolling shot is sick!

TypeOne 07-21-2011 10:37 AM

If it makes you feel any better... what was bolted on didn't come off...lol

Sigh... I don't know what I'm going to do now. I guess it was a sign that the Stillen lip just wasn't right for my car. I guess I'll be off to destroy more expensive ones then.

:-/

On a side note, I did find my car on a cool online blog.

Word! stickydiljoe.com! Check it out!

Hey I know sticky, joey had a clean *** cb accord. Good blog too

TypeOne 07-22-2011 10:32 AM

Yea he did... back in the day! Now he rolls around with a bagged Infiniti...

I torn as to what lip to get now.. any suggestions?

Boost_lee 07-22-2011 12:00 PM

If you want a lip that is not lower than the bumper, the evo r one is stock height just sticks out farther. Not sure of you like that lip, but it might new one of the few that won't hit the ground

TypeOne 07-22-2011 01:28 PM

Mehhh yea... not really a big fan of it. I really like the Mines or the Top Secret lip but damn, I'd die if I ripped one of those things off.

delusional 07-22-2011 05:28 PM

one of the guy over here had 3 Stillen lip and he just recently got an Evo-R and he says it doesn't scrape at all unlike the Stillen one which scrapes everywhere. so thats something you could try. i think it looks just as great too :tup:
