Yeah exhaust is pretty much dragged through but I'm gonna tuck it soon. The main problem though is the entire control arm is hitting the strut tower, even though its cut and the ball joint area is poking through. Next step is shortened spindles.

No, it's close though, I'll tub it slightly if need be. Hoping to get another inch or so out of the front.
