To OP i like the way the black SI's look on your car it flows good with the blue and the black with the lip. And to others my buddy has a red EM1 with white SI rims and that s**t looks sick.

Unmount the lip from the corners, lower them about 1-1.5" and then rescrew them in. I never understood why when people mounted fake lips they made the corners go so high up.
^ this. flabbergasting. never got it either :what:

impo, fix the lip, get a paint job, and wash off that paint of those Si's (Honda will thank you)
at least youre having some kinda progress, ill give you that much buddy. GL

its because your not low enough, springs simply cant get you that low to scrape on things unless they are pretty bad. You are on skunk springs i think right? i cant remember

Im not trying to be a d**k, im just saying springs will not get you really low. its only 2.5 inches, unless you cut them. I spend a lot of time on stancenation and stanceworks though also, so my opionion of a low car is different from a normal person. I would like another inch or two, but im already down 4.5

I do understand what you mean though, driving changes when your tucking. i tuck a lot and now i have a 4 lane turning radius lol

Why have it lowered in winter? thats dumb. your just damaging n destroying your car. No offense but i can understand that you stay lower cuz its only Penn but here in Wisconsin if your lowered your getting no where in the snow.
