Thank you! I wish I had a pictures but the car was literally an inch off the ground, it was pretty brutal because I took it on a road trip to Arizona haha.

Thank you Husni! I actually did the photos myself, I've been practicing with my nikon d70 but switching to canon soon. I wasn't using flash or any external light for this shoot but fortunately the fluorescence provided enough light. The gap is pretty extreme so Im just going to get a new set of wheels. The "EA" is my blog though, should be in my signature as "enlightened aesthetics"

Nice conversion! But yah the front bumper really shows the battle scars. That's the price to pay for riding low though.

The car looks great, and the pics are wonderfully done. I was going to say that you should get on your photographer about his logo being too large, and pulling the eye away from the car itself, but since it's you, I guess thats okay. HA!

Your car looks good. Just throw some spacers on and you're set.

Gap is too big, going for different shoes.
