Thanks Lance! That's good to know! I'll be slightly lower for next year, I think I just need to slow down and not drive when the roads are really bad. Now to get my hands on a new rain shroud or maybe drill new holes and bolt it back on.

Thanks bud! Our modding style is different so our rides complement each other rather than compete against one another

Finally made the switch from G35driver, although I haven't posted much. Can anyone recommend a good service shop near the Maplewood area? I'm looking to have a few things diagnosed with my car and am completely done with the dealership.... I'm sick of being treated like I don't know what I'm talking about. Janik is this car cursed?! haha

If I bought stock springs and struts for 150bucks. I wouldn't mind re-installing them lol. The alignments would suck that is for sure though.

I would buy coils but I would probably take those out for the winter as well... I don't want them to seize in a spot and not be able to adjust them.

You will be fine lol. I do just fine and will probably just stay lowered. It's just in our current alleyway where I hit the craters and humps. Other than that I haven't had any issues.
