That looks awesome! The video has to go though...
It looks so low, doesn't it scrape when turning?
Put my lard **** in the seat, and it will.
I'd like my car lower in the back, but then if I put any cargo in, I'd be screwed .
PS> I changed my avatar back to the pic of my front wheel on TEIN SS's in honor of you new CO's.

Nope no scraping, they guy who did the install is amazing at tucking cars. Out here we like VIP style cars, low and wide, w/ questionable drive ability . I'm only 190lbs lean so there isn't much drop, and i don't put anyone in the back so its all good. But thanks for the compliments.

yeah i went and got a lifetime replacement on these tires right before i did it, for fear of that. so whenever they get low, im going to just pop them and have them replaced

And for the fender, he did something with the bolts so that the give a lil as to not pop one. Thank goodness hes a pro at it, cuz i would not have done that.
