Default Lowering my car

I am lowering my car with the eibach pro kit, 1.1 and 1.0 inches

I will do the front first and see how it looks and then I probably will lower the back because I want to close that gap and look sharp

I ordered the kit through one of my friends motorsports shops and he will be helping me install them

They may get here friday or monday and the install will be on this weekend or next week

Can't wait

Well I have been busy fixing the car up, which is a shame because it look so good but the mess from the stripes has put me behind on my car but I am getting there.

The stripes are off and needs some paint to fix it before I put the stripes back on. The mess from the stripes has been as cleaned off as I can get.

But I am lowering the car tomorrow the shocks came in on friday, Pics will be up this week very soon

After this quick mod, I will be saving up for paint and to put the stripes back on

I hope this will be done before june 13th for the dub show.

There is always next year if I am not ready in time, money takes time to make

That's the update

Lowering springs on, pics coming soon, my brother in law has my camera from the show, got to pick it up this week.

More than looks, the handeling, oh my is just like a race car, corners beautiful and handles tight, no looseness.

Big time PERFORMANCE Upgrade, wow!!!!

The car sits nice the back sits a little low because of the stereo in the trunk but the springs need to be broken in so the front will sit lower. it takes a couple of days, I paid 350 for the springs and install

295 for eiback pro kit

55 for install by my friend.

there is just a slight space you can see, there not tucked in but if I got a tire like a 40 or 45 or 50 probably could close the little gap thats left between the fender well and tire, I don't rub at all, just got to take it slow with bumps and watch out for pot holes, a little more cautious driving, thats ok.

Also I do notice it when sitting in the driver seat I am sitting lower by person when driving, I see the road more closer and feel like a nascar driver he he!
