Front and rear? Stance looks great and the rear doesn't look too much lower than stock, which I like.

Installed KW V3s , Figs LCA bushings, new front rotors and pads all around.. continue tomorrow with a brake fluid flush and possibly stainless steel brake lines..having Michelin PSS put on the BBS LMs.
(Tape on fenders is a reference point for car height prior with Swift springs)

yeah its a 2011 with the swift springs front and rear, 2012+ BBS wheels on PSS rear (OEM profile) and P1s on the front (OEM profile) apart from that and F Sport rear sway the suspension is all OEM and Imo just sits right, id prefer a smoother ride but at the same time its fine considering I only drive it on weekends!

This is dope to see, my colour on my F.. gives me an idea of how sweet the colour will look with the toms kit. Im installing the swift springs in a week or two as well, just hope i dont run into issues with the wheels i customized.. What kinda rear window spoiler is that ?

Rear window spoiler is Lexon and I have a Wald spoiler on order for the trunk. Swift springs aren't low, at all. What are your wheel and tire specs? Here is my finished result.

Thats fire man ! looks dope. Good to know still not sure if im picking any more parts for my car. Spent quite a penny on my wheels shipped from cal to toronto. Im rocking the swift springs because i dont care much for stance (i know lol) plus im not gonna adjust the height if i went with coils. Ive just started shopping around for tires from gonna go with Michellin PSS ( really dig the tire one of my faves) My wheels are vip Modular Vl550 in 20" - 9 in the front with +35 offset and 10.5 in the back +45 offset. I was told and ive seen some guys here with 245/25/20 and 285/25/20, saying they dont rub or anything even with the swifts, Im no tire pro still looking for input. Ill post a pick of the exact same wheels i picked up from VIP. Def my fave wheel brand if not pretty high up there.
