I appreciate it man. I'm thinking wheel spacers on the front wheels. There's about an inch or two gap now that it cambered some. Not sure if it's worth it.

looks much better I've read that the ride is pretty good on these as well. I think some spacers would look good it does look tucked in now, what control arms did you go with?

The only thing I changed out were the springs I'm looking into Eibach Sways. It rides exactly how it used too just have to be way more careful of speed bumps & what not. There's about a 3-4 inch gap from the bottom of my car to the ground so it's definitely a big change.

Car looks wonderful. May want look into a TT kit, and tune after the G is paid off. I'm a firm a believe of updating your car versus purchasing a newer model.

Bags? You're trolling. Right?

Get springs and a camber kit, but please don't bag.

Everyone has their opinions & styles. I have mine & you have yours what's important is not to discriminate on others opinions. Some may see yours as foolish... But no, I'm not trolling. I like slammed cars & I want mine to be both slammed & functional. Accuair E-Level does exactly that. And seeing that you are such an advocate of the "sport" aspect of our car, I might let you know the combination of Accuair E-Level with AirRide Struts gives KW Coils a run for their money...
