Once I get my current setup dialed and splash in some color everything will be good again

The bumper is looking better every time I see it!

Oh man, that sucks! My wheels are forged so I'm a bit worried about powdercoating but my buddy says not to worry, he knows what he's doing. Send 'em out here, I'll have them done for $200 lol

When I get done with NYC Grip King he'll have his wheels tucked like I did. Its time to put in a lot of work bro lol, get out that grand wheel and some cutting tools. Time to drop that bish* call me when you get a chance. I should have some free time coming up to explain it to you.

Its Gray not silver and there is no disrespect at all. Its a fitment thing, you wouldn't understand lol.. I basically wanted to to see how low I could get that setup and still drive it and that's it. It wont go lower than that. But as seen in the picture above it and others posted the wheel isn't normally that cambered. I personally dont care much for it either but oh wells.

IDK guys lol. I got about a .60 in gap all around. i dont think any lower will be good for NYC especially with the MS kit... i kinda like the height too. but if i wanted i could def drop it to the ground with the coil overs.

I think your height looks fine and it is very functionable. No one else is that much lower than you. I say do what works with out carving up your wheels. Drops don't count when they don't fit.

wtf is up with the last post Zumn? You can clearly tell that those SSR's are the wrong offset for the car to be considered aggressive.....lol

Those would look nice, but until then, I think this thread was the wrong place to post that.

**- Look at the pic, I have no ROTORS+Calipers!

***- I know, I just couldnt find the "Greatest Looking Wheels you have seen on an 8" thread. I tried the "search function"
