Looks nice. I'm not a big fan of the kit, but you actually did it right and made the kit look good on the car.

Alright, I'm gonna say it... and I'm sure it's sacrilege to say on this forum:

I think the kit looks great. I like the wheels. But when I see these "luxury/sports" cars lowered this much, I think it looks... not good (being pc here). It's one of those things that I could see in five years people laugh at, like mullets or afros...

But hey, I'm almost 40 years old, so don't mind me! Of course if you love it, it's great! But that brings me to another question, for another thread... How all you young dudes can afford a car like this is beyond me, but then how you can afford to pimp it out is what really baffles me!

thank you.. yeah i guess to each its own kind of thing.. I personally think it's a new style thats in.. of course when i drive its almost like factory height if not a little lower.. the only time i slam it is for pictures or car shows/meets.

I just turned 24 in September and have been very fortunate to drive the cars I have.. My family started off VERY POOR so I bust my a$$ everyday and try coming up with different things to make money(all legal of course).. not saying other people dont...

Also it takes a bit of what I call "debt management"

Ah, well I'd love to see it... how do you kids say it, "not slammed". Mine is white too.

Good to hear you bust your a$$ for what you want. Hats off to you.

The car is on air so it doesnt ride around like that....not unless he wants bad
chassis damage





To the owner of the car I have to say ........YOU NAILED IT. The car looks amazing!!!!

Car looks good man !

But my opinion, I don't know if its the kit, but in previous threads I think the carson kit makes the car look a bit..."bulkier"? For some reason, it looks SICK on dark colored cars, but on white cars it seems a bit too much? just my opinion..but other then that car looks good man !
