Damn dude, looks nice. I even like the black grill and lower lip. You mean your rear shock is shot thus slamming the rear of the car? Either way, looks good!

Looks pretty good. I think the front would look better with some clear corners and if you painted the greddy lip to match, but the blacked out grille looks good

I think he thought when you said "rear shot" (meaning picture shot from the rear), that you meant that the rear coilovers were shot (like broken).

Car looks great.

ooo i was going to say i thought he ment bc i lowered it so far that i broke the shock. i was about to run out to my car and see if it was leaking haha. yea early morning not thinking at all. thanks for the props guys i appreciate it. i just wish i can find a happy medium for my strut setting that im happy with. i used 2 have tanabe dress form springs on my stock struts and loved them. i may switch to that suspension till winters over then put my coilovers back on asoon as i can get an edfc.

just crank the springs up on those coil overs and you'll be fine. it looks too low for a daily driver to me, but it's your ride.

Nice start and great color! I would also paint the lip to match, but leave the grille! -wringo
