Duke - Did you get front and rear? Any clearance issues with the filler neck in the rear? Did you have to modify these civic ones to work? Thanks!

There was no modifications to get the v1's I am using to work, standard konis should be the same - I used the oem top hat bushings instead of the hard plastic ones it comes with and switched out the KW bumpstops for some konis I had - it comes with some that will ride up into the top hat too though.

At the rear I didnt have any issue except the one nut thats on the drivers side front is always a pita helps to have a retractable magnet case you drop it - the oem honda nuts don't fit so I picked up some from autozone.
