RWD Swifts have an inconsistent gap, where the rear is shorter than the front. Doesn't seem to be that with with AWD Swifts, like yours.

 

No infact the picture was taken with a pretty good 20.7MP camera in my Sony Xperia Z2 but once added as attachment on the IB AutoGroup forum app it made it look like the picture was taken with a potato. Soon I'll add a full size picture from Flickr...

And height wise I like it. The front is a little higher so I don't scrape everywhere and besides, I'm sure it will take longer to settle comparing to rear. Ride comfort hasn't really worsened over the stock springs, maybe bumps are a little more noticeable, but not a huge deal...

...and yes these are Eibach springs it's dropped on like Kirk said.

 

And no as a matter of fact Ahmed, I am not fooling you with PS. You should know as I told you last week that I'm getting them installed haha.

 

This is not the drop you were looking for.



No, wait...

 

No, infact I'm pretty happy with the way it is vs the stock height.. the fronts are going to settle more.

here's a higher resolution picture from my flickr account...

I have 18" and want louder and more aggressive too. I'm pretty sure HFC/testpipes/LTH will fix that soon.

 

Here's a progress pic as far as the front end. I purcharsed the non-sport ebay lip for 127.99 and took it over to a buddy of mine to get paint as well as the front bumper. I decided to paint all the grilles with matching "Trim black" paint.

Fitment on the ebay front lip was spot on, no need to re-mold it to fit. I decided to paint the center part of the lip near the lower grille black, similar to what IPL owners do. I like it, I feel it gives the front a much more aggressive look.

Took a quick picture just to show it off a little, car still needs to be compounded and the area I painted black on the lip needs to be redone so the lines match up. Car is going back to the shop today and should have it back by EOB tomorrow. Sport rear spoiler, plate hid-away kit are getting installed. de-badging the rear, and painting the lower portion of the rear bumper with the same trim black paint.

Headlights will be the next project on my to do list. All feed back is welcomed.

I included the attachment of exactly which vendor I purchased the front lip from in case any non-sport owners are interested.

 

Good picture, Mike. Looks exactly like my ride height.

 

Edit: Hmm I thought I put this on the other thread..

 

Thank you John. Some Major changes are coming up in the next month or so stay tuned

 

WTF? I just found a dent in my car. It's so subtle that it took a little bit of study in order to call it out for what it is. Just above the downward crease in the driver's side rear quarter panel, if you look at it in the right light you can see a small depression. And if you run your fingers over it, well, it's definitely there. Sure doesn't look like any ding I've ever seen. The paint is 100% undamaged. Whatever caused this must have been very blunt.

IDK if I should go to a PDR shop or not. Still haven't figured out how much it matters to me.

And now I can't un-see what I've seen. Damn it.

 

Not a bad look at all.
As far as doing the headlights, be sure to change the lenses to STiR lenses from theretrofitsource.com 10x better than the crappy stock fresnal lenses, best $50 mod I've done (IIRC, lol)

 

Be honest with yourself. It's going to drive you crazy

 

Yeah, you're right. It will drive me nuts.

I can probably live with it through winter, and see a PDR specialist next Spring. Pretty sure a PDR tech can fix this, assuming they can get behind the sheet metal. Or even not... IDK, those guys are wizards.

 

Why wait? Isn't PDR relatively inexpensive? And don't they come to your house/work/etc?

Do it for your mental well being
