Dude, Car loks clean and good start. You HAVE to lower that thing! Even if you get Eibach or F Sport springs if you don't want to spend the money on coils. The car still rides smooth.

Yeah dude, gotta at least get springs. Just to close the wheel gap by an inch will do wonders.

Definitely lower it. But you'll have to quit parking over the parking curbs. That habit will chew up your front bumper real fast.

Not really mod...

But I wanted to get protection first so I slapped on clear bras and fog overlays.
