Hi mate, welcome along

Looks a nice ej to start off with. I would take off the red honda badge and change it back to a original silver one and lower it some more all around. Take off any type r stickers you have because it isnt a type r at the end of the day. Tinting wise i would just get a light tint all around mate.

If I lowered it all around more though, wouldnt it affect my driving ?! because its already been lowered and the man says you can feel all the bumps when you drive but I can adjust if wanted too.

Thanks

Well the ride comfort is down to the dampers mate and also spring preload, if the coilovers have damper adjustment you can change it to soft or hard. Which coilovers have you got on it?

Alot of people ride low on this forum including me and handling isnt affected much at all. It will make you drive different in terms of speedbumps and potholes in the road lol

welcome, nice looking motor mate

as sukhy says ditch the hype R stickers and badges and drop it, there is a trade off between comfort and ride height but the handling will generally improve the lower the car goes (camber and centre of gravity improves)

Id stay away from tints imo, dont suit honda's imo without looking chavy

yooo welcome dude!

as you gradually surf this forum you'll gather that pretty much of us are about slammed cars with low offset wheels.
