Looking sweet!

Is your exhaust hanging lower on the left side? ..or is it the angle of the shot?

I got the new extended studs on, put the spacers on, fitment looks AMAZING! BUT BUT BUT...

BUT car is too low and I shredded some major tire sidewall half way home and my front tires are hitting something under the fenders... NOT COOL... ALSO, when the rear compresses, the rear fender hits the rear wheel lip, which is tearing me apart inside because I JUST GOT THE WHEELS AND TIRES LAST WEEK!

I think I need to raise the rear a bit and put the coilovers to the stiffest setting possible. Then I'm gonna have to do some cutting under the fenders up front.

I'm so stressed out right now.

Hopefully tiltmode43 chimes in and gives me some major pointers

Fenders rolled, rears pushed a bit (but obviously not enough now), and I had to chop the front bumper where the side markers bolt on.

It seems that I'll have to cut all the liner tabs from the front fenders and raise the rear a bit and stiffen the suspension to the max so that it doesn't compress all the way down and continue hitting wheel lip on fender.

Not to mention cleaning all the burnt rubber off my fenders

Pics tomorrow...

man sounds ruff!

definitely remove the front liner, if the rear isn't cut yet do that as well and run mo camber. hopefully tilt can chime in on this. PM him I'm pretty sure he has some advice.

cant wait for the pics though

No front liner at all and rear bumper tab is cut. It's seriously just too low or I'd need to flare the rear fenders.

I also need some pointers on how to fit the damn sidemarkers!!!

I zip tied them to the front bumper area but when I turn the wheels, it pushes the markers out
