Sooooo...what kind of setup did you go with? The front still looks like it has a pretty descent gap in it still so it must not be too much of a drop.

i went with the 2" Number One springs from the nopi e-cat. i didn't have the $$ for shocks at the time so they are still oem. the ride quality went down with the drop but i have a blown rear shock so i knew it would. i have 205/40 series tires so the profile is too low to fill in the gap. my lowest point (front bumper cover) is 4" exactly from the ground. any lower and i would not be able to get in my driveway.

Hmmm, I would have waited to put it all one until you got aftermarket shocks. You are going to hate driving anywhere with blown OEM shocks and a 2" drop. Get the right stuff or else you are always going to be doing it over which is no fun when you could have done it all right the 1st time. I would have personally gone with Eibach Pro-Kits. They offer the best handling for the money that I have seen and felt and offer a descent drop.

SLAM THAT SHIT TO THE FLO! After all, performance and handling should take a back seat to looks and the dBs from your "ICE" meng. emoji

Seriously, though, it looks really nice.

i have clear corners in it now.

everything is in back seat for about a year now since there will be a little one come october. some minor things will be put on but not much. car goes to storage when i transfer from pensacola to norfolk, va at the end of april. that is when stuff will be painted slowly as i save the $$ to do it.
