Mikesmith0890 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Having a connection at a towing company is ftw... Much cheaper to get a parts car that way.. but beware of ebay no name, my girl tried buying something she liked for her car, and at the time i had no idea she was buying it from ebay or what brand, and by the time it got here and I installed them (happened to be taillights) the next day after rain the taillights had water in em.. waste of $40 on her part, just be careful of what you buy AlphaDamp Sound Deadening CDL Mat - The best Vibration Damper Ever! I'd hit that so fucking hard whoever pulled me out would be King of England. Lol... looks like we were on the same page. Car-B-Ques suck.ya, tires and paint burning make the marshmallows taste funny.

doug118 Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 cai get a dc sports others are a waste of money imo muffler, dc sports or apexi, otherwise a waste again. lowering springs eibach only "ground controls" are eibachs...if you can afford it get teins head and taillights ebay ones are horrible as hell, they leak they fade they oxidize. oh and i kno0w a bit about accords i have 11, 4 which are 90 accords. theres no such thing as too expensive when it comes to upgrades like that, because imo if you are gonna spend to upgrade then do it correctly rather then be a cheap ass ricer AEM makes the best intake on the market EDIT: if you have a built engine, nothing is better then a 3" intake pipe.. if you do that with a stock motor, it will run like shit if by muffler you mean exhaust and not just a muffler, then there are many more then just apexi and dc sport, theres Thermal R&D, Greddy, and even a custom one would work well, with a Burns Stainless muffler of course (best on the market) lowering springs, theres Skunk2, H&R, Tein, then for coilovers there is JIC, KW, PIC, and Form/Function and trust me, I know GOOD brands, I've had a 300whp GTI and a 600whp Integra 2001 Tahoe.

ryde2idie Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 i always look for the power sellers (no lower then 99% positive feedback), and i go thru the feedback to see if someone else has bought the product and how it worked out for them so that way you know that if they have sold to 30,000 people and have a 99% positive feedback then the product there selling has to be of decent quality.

raytard Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 99% of people will buy something, install it, see it "works" and leave reviews...if they go any farther than recieving, looking at it, and leaving feedback notice how they are all "omg came so fast, great seller A+++++" and shit like that, not "fit perfectly and worked as well as name brand"? you always get what you pay for Build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...hl=avalon+build monster/rockford/kicker/stinger cables, pioneer source, jbl highs/amps, kinetik/shuriken batts, iraggi alt, dei security, dc subs(atleast for now) Team DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doug118 Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 did you have skunk 2 springs or coilovers? and yes jic and kw pretty much start at $1k and I'm not sure if any of the companies I mentioned make parts for 90-93 accords.. didn't realize you were reffering to that car specificly 2001 Tahoe.
