it was easy....just took of the wheel....cleaned it well with some degreaser...then masked off the areas I didn't want painted...then used a small sponge brush to apply the paint....I used the paint that they use to paint your car with and so far it's held up pretty well.

yeah I'm looking to do a drop of 1.5 inches...but I don't know anything really about lowering combinations...however I do know that I'd like to go springs and shocks...what are some good combination....I guess after everyting I'm lookin for about 1300ish....also I'd like it to be just as good as stock. Any suggestions? and do I need a camber kit? 'cause I've read the board and most say no.

If you want the best ride and handling..., nothing beats FULL COILOVERS. I guess it all depends on your budget and how seroius you are, eg track and auto cross.

Are you lookin at the same car everyone else is buddy?
I fail to see how his car is rice in anyway.

Anyway, not much else to say that already hasn't been said!

Looking good, drop and you're good to go.

I just installed my H&R Sports today, i'll get pics tomorrow with my new rims.

Sweet Ride Bro. Hey I would suggest camber on the front. I hear ( Don't quote ) that you don't really need them for the back. But I saw a 95 Hatch that was lowered, and it needed the front cambers on it harsh. But then agian I find some people like that look, so hey, if it works for them. ANy ways, Chill ride dude!
