38724, Would I have enought clerance for the RMDSM spoiler? Posted by BlitZEclipse, Jan-17-03 05:26 AM
If i put a 97-99 eclipse bumper on would i have enough ground clerance, I am dropped on H&R race springs, so thats 2 inches in front.
TIA

Um... don't spend the money on that front spoiler with those springs. I have no paint on the underside of my bumper from those springs. The drop on the front is lower than 2", FYI. If you have any other questions Let me know, I will go take a picture of the underside of my bumper. Its yellow...

Yes I have heard that H&R springs are realllly low from some members on this board. I wouldn't suggest using that spoiler wither. Brynden had it on his car for like a week or so and he took it off his 97+ bumper. I have over a 2" drop in the front and rear and my front scraped moderately. Weird, as mine is lower than the stock bumper.

I would venture to say the drop with those springs is 2.5" at least. I went with Gold Line this time and measured the drop, it was EXACTLY 2" in the front and rear. I was quite a bit lower with the H&Rs. They should change the drop rating on them IMO.

yeah, the race springs for most other cars are a 2.5 drop

I'm riding those springs and a Blitz bumper, and it is LOW. I have to completely limit the streets I drive on here and all curbs have to be taken at a 60 degree angle!!! You know its low when you gotta go down a McDonalds drive thru backwards to get off the curb at the end ;) :thumbsup

Dude, seriously... I put it on ONE night, and by the end of the night, I scraped the $HIT out of it!!! I'm lowered with Sportline Springs. I had... maybe... 2 inches of clearance!! If you do not want to watch your driving that bad, then I'd say... :nono
