mr. repost 02-22-2007, 08:37 AM here are some quick (no photoshopping time) of my element i lowered last night. the coilover come all the way down (which is where i intended to put them anyway), so i put them on like this. i didnt measure anything, but i think its like 4.5 inches or something. rides like stock. i need a rear camber kit.

BrownSquirrel 02-22-2007, 08:39 AM Looks good man.
I am not a big fan of lowering but it looks good on the SC.
Great job!
EXwSCnose 02-22-2007, 09:12 AM Nice looking!!! Now you can body color match the five-spoke wheel centers and leave the rim blank, that would look cool too...!
mr. repost 02-22-2007, 09:18 AM i was actually considering color matching the enitre wheel.
fullclip101 02-22-2007, 10:33 AM i dont like lowered cars or trucks...but it does look nice...
mr. repost 02-22-2007, 10:36 AM how the heck do you drive that through the snow......?:-P
hahahaha. i wish it would snow here.
The Rube 02-22-2007, 11:50 AM Very "sweet" looking ride! Like the wheels......
I love it! Make sure you get that camber kit before you start eating through those tires.
Blank 02-24-2007, 04:34 PM What's that on your rear window?
mr. repost 02-25-2007, 06:09 PM *** new pics on the first page*********
Speedy Toaster Dave 02-25-2007, 06:16 PM Repost, looks great clean looking E''...:D
mr. repost 02-25-2007, 06:21 PM thanks sir.
mr. repost 02-25-2007, 06:23 PM What's that on your rear window?
its a perforated sticker. 50% of it is covered with wholes. you can see out of it perfectly fine and seeing in is pretty much impossible. its good for advertising or repping a car club or sports team. Hit me up if youd like one.
JusG19 02-25-2007, 10:42 PM How did you do the flip key? did that come or is compatable with the SC?
Brutis 02-25-2007, 11:21 PM Thats a good lookin SC, I love how the element can either be an outdoor wonder or a stylin city ride. 8)
jaseneb 02-26-2007, 01:48 AM How can I get a flip key to work for my SC?
Thanks,

mr. repost 02-26-2007, 07:43 AM buy a 2007 acura TL key, then buy a rdx faceplate (no trunk option) and get them to laser cut it at honda. Then bring all of your keys you own (including the flip key) to honda and have them reprogram them all together (100 bux approx)
full project price for me (cause i dont know anyone at THIS honda dealership) was around 150.
mr. repost 03-21-2007, 03:02 PM bump for a sick toaster. :-P
Edpsx 03-23-2007, 12:08 PM How does the HID kit look at night? Im gonna get a 6000k kit for mine and was wondering what kind of performance/beam pattern you where getting. If you wouldnt mind posting up a pick of the beam pattern(on a wall)/ light on the road Id be much appreciative.
sleek_SC 03-23-2007, 02:14 PM im not a big fam either, unless you lower it and its the same measuremnt all the way around the tire, i just put 18s on my ride with the same size tires as what you have, 235 50 18, i like the way mine sits, sits up like the new Cheyanne
Speedy Toaster Dave 03-23-2007, 02:38 PM Sleek SC i like those wheels ya gots there...:D

Because you have a 2007, it should be fairly easy to have it done as long as you're willing to fork up some cash to have it done.
r2-yh2 03-25-2007, 11:15 PM thats a hot sc
blue-ex 03-26-2007, 08:19 AM look very nice!

looks like a crisp white line on my house when i pull up at night. the HID's are awesome. only problem is FLASHPLUS (ebay user id) on ebay, they are a bunch of fagots.
Forget snow.

:lol:
hahahaahaha
BTW: thanks for the compliments.
nice. so you got Tein? i know u said it rides like stock, does it really? when u hit a bump do you feel a lot of a difference. i drive a 93 honda civic, slammed, on koni yellows and ground controls. so its very bumpy. i want to get an element, but lower it about the same drop you did, but also be comfortable.
i just want to know how the ride feels, and the turns, and handling.
does it do the "bang!" when you hit a pot hole?
or does it go up and down and up and down and up and down, when on the highway?
thanks, josh
kitkat123474 09-22-2009, 09:33 PM how's the ride comfort on those teins?
