Thank you guys for your kind words. The S2K community has been great to me thus far!! 
I got a great deal on a set of Flex Zs. Not the cream of the crop but so far they've ridden quite well! I'll probably upgrade the suspension later on.
Thanks Fernando, huge fan of your build as well!

I got the car setup this past weekend and got some shots after a quick wash. California winters right now @ 87F degrees so I got to do some top-down driving around town.
The wheels are RPF1s 17x9 +45. They have some minor rash on them so I'm planning on getting them refinished soon. I also have some Accord center caps that I'll need to modify before plugging them in.
Tires are taken off of the AP2 V2 wheels, they're 235/45/17 up front and 255/40/17 in the back. Not the most ideal set up.... but they're brand new from the previous owner so I figured I'll run them for a bit before going for a better setup.
Coilovers are Tein Flex Z that I got a super deal on for cheap. Ride has been good so far for me, a little harsh but definitely bearable. I'm hoping the coils settle a little bit more to reach my ideal ride height about a quarter inch lower. Alignment was also done -2 camber up front and -2.9 in the back. No rubbing for me thus far, fenders rolled all around with bumper tab relocate on the rears!
This is a fairly standard setup, but I'm a simple guy. After seeing so many tried and true setups, I figured it would be a good start for me and the car.

No problem! There's actually a thread about it somewhere on here that goes into a little bit more detail if you need help.

Pumping some gas before a little cruise with my brother's FG4. So far the car has been driving great! Now that the coils have settled, I might go back to the shop to bring in the alignment and adjust some more....
