cant go wrong with getting the kit first. then you can decide how low you want to go. the ings kit with any kinda drop will still be very low to the ground... kit first, drop second, thats if you dont have wheels cause that would be first before either one...

just my two pennies.

I would go wit a drop 1st then get the kit make sure you get adjustables cuz the kit might not look right after you install it.

Obviously a slammed g with 19's is the best way to go. But if you live in NY or any other place where the roads suck make sure that your not too low where you are constantly bottoming out. And good luck with your choice.

you cant have the kit without dropping it first you gonna look like a chump. I hate people who buy rims and don't drop the car and look like a 4X4.

1. Drop
2. Wheels
3. Body kit

I say kit first. I put my kit and wheels on and elected not to lower it any more. Better to have the unadjustable elements (kit, wheels) on first, then the adjustable (coilovers).

I say go for the kit first. Look for truplay8's pics. His car at stock height does not look bad at all. Also, after getting the kit, you can decide how low you should go.

+1 million

You dont get a body kit first, and then your drop. Sorry, doesn't work that way, atleast for our cars it doesnt, maybe civics? First get your rims, then get your springs/struts or if not, go the coilover route. THEN, get your bodykit, and it will look nice and flush, as long as you have wider than stock rims, with good offsets. If you dont have the money for rims, then get your drop first, get spacers, then get your kit. If you're going to do something, do it right the first time.

well i was thinking that if i get the kit first, and since that already make the car lower to the ground, by an inchish. i could just get like 350H-tech springs, and drop it a little more, falling into OEM specs.....
