Default Finally lowerd car!! DF210

so ive had the car since december, so far i've tinted the windows, did a magnaflow cat back exhaust, added 2 12in subs and got the VAIS tech ipod controller....
yesterday i lowered the car with Tanabe DF210's was originally going to go with eibachs but the drop and ride is perfect on the DF210...

these are just cell phone shots, and just a preview... still have stock wheels on... going to put 18's on tomorrow..ill post more pics when i get the wheels on and wash the car..

Before (the day i got the car)
