Tires get mounted tomorrow and the car will be in the body shop for the cut and pull...
I'm off to LA and Vegas for meetings and trade shows.
Will post the final pics on the weekend.

Sorry I was highjacking Ikapimp216's thread. BTW he has helped me a lot with offset and pull...
My car is pretty retarded now, somewhere between a VIP car and a Euro static dropped car. I won't post pictures until after the body work... i have realized if you want to run very aggressive and flush you have to get used to some rubbing! I am having the rear redone with the factory body line kept.
Heres my teaser...
Pay close attention to the imprint of the water the tires left! haha

coils and carson tuned kit in QC damn yo, I got fam in QC and all round Montreal...all this just to stunt for about 3 months then snow lol kidding...u must have a DD, like I do living near NYC. These roads are still, the couple of towns around me just started patching up pot holes with that Bullshytt filler (u know the black pebbles + tar, that they just try to flatten out, but it only lasts for like 2 months)

So here are some updates, the rear came out amazing. We tried to keep the factory body line, it's flared about 1.5"/ side but ideally i don't want it to show. They aren't finished yet but so far so good. They made new custom bumper hangers too!

Lookin really good so far bro, see thats what i couldn t figure out how far to pull before you have to lose that body line. I personally didn t want to but you can t keep it with a heavy pull unless you want a ton of mud work i would only want metal finishing. Then in order to keep it somewhere bettween would actually limit the lip gains. Btw what is the exact lip size of your rear and front wheels if you don t mind me asking. Whats going on with the front did a slight pull work or are those fenders getting re done as well?? I have also been feeling air ride here lately too next mod may be air theres always next season.

Front lip is 3" rear lip is 4.5".
In front a roll and pull worked. Only I had to grind off the bumperhangers, do a lot of hammering and just leave the corner screwed in with a self tapping screw.
The UAS kit was surprisingly cheap, I'm going to be running a simple manual kit. I do want fast, I'm to old for people actually see it move! Haha. Installing next weekend! Can't wait.
Coilovers and UAS is cheaper then any of the suspension set ups (KW) I was running in my last 3 Porsches.

There was no way to pull enough without fender work... In order to achieve the more stock look you need bondo. I'm happy once it is painted it should look pretty stock.
