What lip is that? I'm so afraid to run a fiber glass lip.

Got coilovers installed and now it's too low. Gotta raise it back up and adjust height to my liking now. I know I'm going to have to relocate the wire harness but I dread doing it, it seems like a headache.

LOL you're right having chewed wires is worst. I'll find time to do it I just don't know when plus the car doesn't see much of the road anymore so that gives me some time to schedule it into my schedule.

Relocating wire harness was one of the easier things to do IMO!

The rear brakes look nice 1of120. Did you use the same color caliper paint for the rotors? I wish I did that because my crappy autozone rotors rusted after the first site of rain.
