You had a rare car there. A Civic without a fart can! Very tasteful. As for your problem, I ran into the same one. The front of my car looked tohigh even after lowering it. Instead of paying like 500 bucks for the whole kit I just bought the front pieces of the kit for 30 bucks from someone on ebay. It was a one time thing though, it wasn't like a seller or anything. It was a cheap fix and they look good, I also scrape them on my driveway too sometimes! :) But GL finding the front pieces by themselves.

Heres a pic:

If you browse through some of toy1mz's picture threads you can see his homemade kit which looks really good imo. I'm going to look into that after winter. A home depot "garage door lip" may actually flow well because of your gunmetal rims and black grill.. Get some black out lights and it'll look great =]
are avalons supposed to be this fast?
