I imagine part of that "drive" was riding on the ferry?

Nice G IRNB!

As far as the coilover height, like I mentioned, I was about a 1/2" lower than I am now and it was much more prone to scraping and had to be much more concerned w/ every road hazard, unknown parking garages, etc. Just not a very fun way to roll. Running at zero gap now so it still rides low but no scraping problems and a much more enjoyable daily drive.

Take a tape measure and see where you're at now, if you can get an even 26.25" to the fenders I think you'll share my beliefs. Hopefully you'll get some time, if for nothing else than to just enjoy a few brews, lol
I'm assuming that 26.25" height is appropriate for your 18" wheel/tire combo, but that height would be different for a 19" wheel/tire setup, correct?

It's based on tire diameter, I'm running 245/45/18s and these are very close to 245/40/19s and 245/35/20s, all those three would be within 1/10" from each other as would closely matched rear wheels.

But that measurement is dependent on tire diameter so if you are running tires that are more than 1.5% taller or shorter than those OEM based diameters that changes things a bit

Thanks for pointing that out C

Looks good @kirtis. Will you be adding spacers to the front wheels at all?

A friend shot this with his Sony camera during my Easter BBQ! I can't stop admiring the shot. Just something about the blue slate sedan that makes me want to wrestle a bear

Car looks great, Andy! Might want to consider some wheel spacers to really set off your drop.

Thanks brotha..
thing about it is out here in Arizona
Lots of dust storms so it's a constant maintenance
And the heat don't help either
So I gotta stay on top of my dash/leather seats/Clearcoat
