LOOKS GREAT! That drop is PERFECT. Any rubbing issues while turning the wheels?

Also, do you cover your tag driving down the street to so that no one see it? Just curious

Thanks guys (And gals) for all the comments!!! For those asking about rubbing - The only places I rub is the bumper tab area on large bumps, and the part of the fender liner closest to the cabin. (Which is not from my drop - its from my offsets - I have rubbed there ever so slightly ever since I got my wheels)

The ride is more firm, and you feel the road more... but its not harsh at all. A lot less "floaty". Overall, I'd say it rides great - and a lot more sporty!

Yea... Im really considering it.

How is the ride quality compared to stock?
Thanks! .... yeah Im considering it. That, or somehow get a hold of 2011 headlights! haha. What I really want to do is run without front plates... but the holes are already there . Black frame surround is a good idea! As for the ride, see my response above^^

Not a overly huge fan of rear lips. ... But if I had to pick one it would be toms!!!

Looks bro.... xD
haha... the pic from the "Pic of your car right now!" thread? That was actually AFTER I lowered it! ... I was just wanted to have some good pics before posting. ... Ive actually been lowered for 2 weeks now.

Nice to see you that your finally pulled the trigger Raj!

Looks a lot better without the gap. The hard part now is trying not to mess up your front bumper from the parking blocks.

what a HUGE difference a little drop makes, looks great....your car almost looks like an F-Sport with those wheels.
