I love the stanced/slammed look but could never do it because it would kill me every time I had to drag it over something and scrape up the underside of the car. To many speed bumps and uneven roads around me .

I disagree. It looks exactly like he wants it to look and I was glad to see in his original post he acknowledged the functional guys aren't going to like it.

Actually, it's the car the OP wants, it's his money, and if that's what makes you happy, rock on!

The only thing I would ask is, don't look to this setup for mechanical performance or ask for help with mechanical performance issues. It's not the path this ride is on.

Also - fair warning - cursing or working around the curse filters is not a good idea in any part of Club Lexus. Profanity is not allowed on Club Lexus - we cater to the whole family here, so if you're finding it difficult to express yourself without using profanity you might find Club Lexus not very much fun.

this car really shows off how beautiful the bumpers are on the isf. wheels too sunken though, if it was somehow flush, it would be perfect.

If you slammed the car, you'll need super stiff springs. Your roll center is below ground level, which makes your roll couple crazy long, so you need stupid stiff springs to control body roll.

Ugh...slammed sports car = fail IMO, why not just buy a 250 if you are going to do that? Either way welcome to the forums and hope you enjoy the car.
