Makes me not want to install my lowering blocks...are you going to keep yours on there when you switch to coils?

thats a old pic. the car with the lowering blocks gets REAL low. doesnt ride too well too low. depending on your roads u have to adjust it. i would have 3 different driving settings for different roads plus the lowdown mode.

^sounds pretty cool. I don't think I will do any modding, but you never know. Darn these forums filled with people with sweet custom rides. Hope you get your car to it's proper ride height
