Noob From Va

Name: Kenny

Location: Va Beach, VA

Currently just bought a 2003 Acura 3.5 RL "The VIP UnderDog"

Forum image

I've owned a lot of imports ranging from civics to 350z, so I've always had my foot in the tuner game but recently was introduced to VIP through local cars shows put on by local car crews(i.e. Sumospeed). Since then I've been really intrigued to start my own build. I picked the KA9 to be kind of original seeing as though there isn't many around.

Stumbled upon this site googling VIP websites and just looking to further my knowledge about the trend and lifestyle.

Just picked up wheels today. Called around to a couple places to find an airbag setup. The only people who seemed to carry a legit complete kit was Airbagit.com. Should be ordering the kit this week hopefully

noooo don't buy from airbagit. if you google the company you will see a lot of bad reviews. their kits seldom do what they're supposed to and have a lot of problems. save yourself the money and the headaches.

Do you know from experience or know someone who's had them?

So no go on the airbagit kit. Read too many bad reviews. But did some research and found Ksport Deluxe Air Suspension kit. Now they dont make a kit for the 1st Gen RL, so I will be ordering the 2nd Gen Legend kit. Which will fit on the RL with just a swap of the front forks.
