car doesnt seem that low, there is alot of things you can do to your car to make it lower no doubt.

Try these:

Cut the cup assembly at the perch shorter all the way around ontop of coilovers with adjusting nuts with shorter springs and extended tophats, as long as you can compensate for the shorter springs with tophats youll be good, although tophats that are too big are just kinda too much

max tophat height should be around 1/34 inches tall, because any bigger and there really isnt any gain

Full coilover setup with adjustable shock body

mix and match suspension components


Once you go low you cant prevent scraping underneath the subframe

my car scrapes the front cross member, and gets stuck on small speedbumps, headers scrape the floor going straight, smacks into road reflectors and barely has clearance underneath , rear control arms scrape, can smacks into the ground somtimes, uca hit the chassis and cant get clearnance to go lower, mudflaps dont say honda anymore

my car rapes speedbumps, and i rarely go over them

it really sucks that the "EF" chassis is alot lower than most cars


but this is the joy i get for lowering my car

I still love my car though
