That looks AWESOME! It looks like the MS springs lowered the car more than half and inch or is that just me?

its about 2 fingers all the way round, I think stock is like 3.5 fingers.

its a nice conservative drop, similar to the Racing Beat kit

just a question for anyone with the MS shock/springs, do you experience any real scraping? my old car would always drag on inclines, im worried if I put the MS suspension in, it may be more scraping.....thanks! the car looks great too brillo!
