Thanks for all the comments fellas!! I really appreciate the love fam!!!!

I am running Megan coilovers and yes it is static and yes this is my daily driver hahaha!! Some call it crazy and others may call it stupid lol but low is truly a lifestyle and I'm in it til the end!!

as for fender work, all fenders are rolled, pulled, repainted, and rear inside quarter panels are pushed up for max inner clearance.

Puff- very true I should have compiled these pics into my other thread but i wasnt even thinking haha. But i ended up buying a new set because i wanted fully polished with a more aggressive offset.

I figured you had some fender work done because I was hitting wheel lip with rear fender when my offset was +19 (with 3mm spacers) in the rear.

To tell you the truth, my body guy wanted me to promote his business so he did all this work for a killer price. It took him almost a week and he said if he would have put it in the books, it would have been around $2,500.

Thanks bro! That's exactly whats next on my list!! If I can get one in decent condition for $300 shipped I will buy it!
