Those are the same altezza's I got, and i think it would look shitty without the center piece, at least on my car (forest green colored). I really like the way these altezza's look compared to the circle/oval G1's.

if you don't lower it get some rims and DO pain the center piece to match your car. BTW ryan, love the after version ALOT better!

Well the problem with me lowering it is that im only 17 i barely makin the payments and the car isnt in my name and my mom totally refuses to let me lower it and i really dont want to cause mu front end is already pretty fucked up from bottoming out. so that it out of the question for right now. im probably gon to get rims this summer as soon as i get my other job. But im keepin the center piece i like it im goin to do the mod to it so that they light up 2 ive just been to lazy to do it.

bro, the effects of lowering are wayyyy to overated, nothing happens just bottom of bumper gets scraped which is basically un-see-able, but it makes the car look 34739478 times better. as for ur driveway mine is crazzy and i live in LA cali, u just gotta know how to drive it. as for ur mom, im 17 too, what does she have todo with ur car. go get it lowered and drive home. i bet u she wont even notice!

My mom drives my car sometimes, i bet the people that see her in a car like mine go crazy and say "why in the hell is a old lady driving that car?" but she never can tell when i change my car in any way.

3709, Lowering... Posted by 97CustomGS, May-04-01 03:10 AM
Don't worry about bottoming out on your driveway... just back in.
Seriously, that will solve all your problems of bottoming out on your driveway. I used to have that problem myself.

I live with my parents and they didnt notice I got my car lowered. They dont like me doing stuff to my car, but its my hobby so f*** em. That $100 grillcraft grill could have bought a set of used springs and you could just do the $15 camber mod and you would be set. I did the $15 camber mod along with the $3.38 grillcraft mod and it looks damn good. :)

paint the handles and mirrors. Get some Gs sideskirts. lower i a couple inches. If you still have cash after that, buy a turbo kit or 80 shot of nos. I think that the mesh should go. Always seemed a little ricy to me.

Take out the center piece of the altezza's and have the regular center painted. Trust, me it will look a lot better. I need to do it myself -- but not as urgent because my center kinda matches my car.
