Hi

just some update on my car.
finally lower my car with the sports suspension (springs and shocks)

I took my car in to TWS today and have them put it in for me.
after I came back home, I washed the car and took some pics.

enjoy it











i know some of you mgiht still think my car sit too high, but with that reiger lip, I think that is low enough.
Any lower than that will give me a very hard time driving it.

FrankW

that's lowered??????????









jp....looks.....eh....stock

how did you clean your exhaust tips so well?

yeuchau

exactly right, stock
but not stock non-sports anymore
suspension came from 05ss

yeuchau

nothing special at all
just regular soap that I use to wash my car

TruTaing

his tips are relatively new too :P

needs to be lower. I'd rather go lower than have the lip, but thats just me :P

edit love the carlsson add on in the rear though!

magnus203

looks dope, really liking the exhaust tips and the front grille is hot schit!
going to try and get some pictures of mine today, i havent had my carlsson wheels fitted yet though so i should really wait till thats done, my stock wheels are horrid.

drop it more and get some 19's

BlackLiquorish8

love the exhaust tips

no need to lower...but maybe some side skirts will make the car look lower and still be functional.

yeuchau

prob won't drop anymore
but my tires need to be replace within few month, so what I am thinking about getting new set of wheels, but don't know if I should get 19 or just stay with 18.
Cause of the road cond in L.A, it realy pushes back to stay with 18

what do you guys say??

nlpamg

lowered huh?

why does my '05 with stock suspension still look lower than this?

I'd trade off having a lower car than having that add-on reiger lip any day of the week.

"road conditions in la" don't be a wuss. I live in LA and am running 19's in both cars. Drex has 19's, Frank used to run 19's, TONs of members from LA run 19's and have had absolutely no problems.

yeuchau

you have 19, that's probably why it looks lower
if that's the case, then I will go with 19's rather than 18's

FrankW

are you positive? that looks more like the C32 or the pre-04.5 sport suspension height to me.

here's a pic of AdamVax's car on stock suspension with the 19" the gap should not be that much different than yours, but it is.

either way...if you like it

edit:found a pic of stock height on 18"

nlpamg

even with my stock 17's, my car looked lower than that. I think you got jacked.

teknician

im lovin the rieger lip.....but ya should be a bit lower

yeuchau

maybe i'll park next to a c230 tmr just to compare it in person, cause sometimes picture does no justice

nlpamg

let's try this:


yeah, yours is higher.

Ryanr317

Maybe they just haven't settled yet?

Sanny

yenchau, i am very dissapointed that you told me you were going out of town, and wanted me to hold the springs i have for you, and did not even send a courtesy email to let me know.

i am over it, but i think its just a little courtesy.

your car looks higher than mine stock.

rlee02135

now isn't this better?



coilovers FTW!

nlpamg

damn dude, he did that to you? that's pretty dick. well, it looks like you have the last laugh now!

FrankW

LOL...u cut out the lip!!!

drexappeal

I had so much hope for you after you did that DIY! This justification for not getting 19's makes you digress. Road conditions in L.A. are nothing compared to New York!

drexappeal

Ugh... More mis-information. 19's DO NOT make a car look lower than cars with 18's or 17's. Please don't start doing that again.
