Strong work here...looks great! Once you add some rims, it will really complete the look. Keep us updated with your progress.

Last picture... Also note that i just got these installed the springs didn't settle yet and I didn't get an alignment yet. I can see future camber wear without an alignment but im going get the alignment in a week.

These pictures do not justify the car. every picture I've uploaded on this thread has been taken with a iPhone 3gs. I will have a official photoshoot sometime soon when it gets just a bit warmer.

I think the drop is perfect. not too low or not too high. The car should have came like this in my opinion

Looks good but totally off with those dinky 18" wheels. Get a set of graphite Vossen cv1s and this car will look next level.

Just a minor note about black or very dark cars. If you really want us to see the difference in changes or drops, then please photo the car in full sun and lots of light on the side of the car to reduce the shadows around the wheel arch so we can really see the difference. I mean I know the car looks different but how much different from your photos, just don't do it the justice for all the hard work you've put into it. Now I hope you also got a good set of sway bars with those springs and even with those 18" tires, you'll get some decent handling for that car. Great job.
