Default HFP suspension kit

I am interested in the Honda Factory Performance suspension kit. It will lower the car about an inch and improves handling. It should increase fuel ecomony since the car is a bit lower. But, I am more interested in the improved handling.

It cost $600 plus shipping and labor.

Does anybody have this or interested in getting this?

Default Re: HFP suspension kit

I'm curious as to if it's heavier. One other option is to wait for the Si Sedan and use that suspension instead. Also, I don't see it as an available option for the Hybrid.

That is true, but I am sure this suspension is going to be lower than the SI. The HFP is available for the SI and the coupe and they are the same one. I am going to give College Hills Honda a call Monday and find out. I checked the parts for the sedan and the hybrid and suspension wise they are the same components.
