thats not too much...

this is too much


this is how i am now


im not rubbing at all. btw you CAN ride that low if you relocate the chassis harness in the drivers wheel well. if you dont then expect electrical problems all day long.

i will be raising my car about an inch all around and im pissed. the only reason im doing it to be able to get into the parking lot at school. otherwise i scrape hardcore every time

stock rims are so gay.

why would you raise the car? it's not even that low, just go sideways over the bumps. that's what I do, my car's just as low if not lower than your car, AND I have a front lip. Man up

That front is going to be tough, Lots of angled aproaches, Slow navigation and really picky about where you drive and you should be OK.

Throw some 19's on there and you should be fine clearing driveways as long as you get sideways. Throw the rest of the kit on and post some pix. Good work so far

It should be like this... 1st wheels, 2nd lower, 3rd body/lip kit. Not the other way around!!!!
