Nice. Are you running aggressive offsets or keeping it conservative?

Staying conservative for now 40 offset all around. Need to do some fitment test for the TT brakes, planning on a 10mm spacer on the front to clear them.

Just a little update on the whip. Got the coilovers taken care of, and dropped it like there was no tomorrow

Unfortunately I now scrape a bit when getting into my parking lot

Enjoy pics.. More to come:

Sex in a box

Old set-up front

Old set-up rear

Installed

Wheels actually tuck, but pics won't show it b/c of the shadow:

BTW, those are my winter rims, so no cracking on the scratches

Looking good Flav. Your projects have all come together nicely. When is the new bumper going on? Can't wait to see it all together new wheelies and all come Carlisle

Thanks Leroy... Car is currently in the body shop as of friday, so all the little nucks and crannies are being taken care of... I'm a bit nervous about putting on the wheels since the rear profile is 25
