Default A few updated pictures of big red

Since my last post about the new wheels I have since added some BC coilovers and 5mm spacers all around onto the car. I only had a few pics posted randomly since the drop, so this is the first 'shoot' since then. I'm happy with the car's stance as is, and I don't really plan on going much lower, at least without doing fender work. I've got my eyes on the Top Speed axleback exhaust and fixing a few minor things are higher on the priority list. Also, just upgraded my DSLR to a Canon 60D, so I'm breaking it in and figuring it out. These are just a few that I've edited so far, I'll add some more as I finish! Comments and criticism are welcome!

That paint is so nice! You must take good care of it.

Thanks! and as my daily driver, I definitely wanted functionality. I could probably go lower, but getting up my steep driveway would be an issue... lol

Me too! And honestly, you probably could. I wanted to do that originally, but I didn't realize how much the coils would sink the wheels into the fenders, because at stock height, the 8.5"s were pretty much flush with the fenders. Although I do not rub at full lock, and I don't know if the same could be said for the 9.5s...

Thanks! I do take care of it, but its not perfect by any means! I'd actually like to get it re-sprayed eventually. whoever did the paint work previously (the original owner hit a deer and had the front bumper and fenders replaced) didn't match the paint/blend it into the doors, but its not super noticeable unless you really look... look a the last two pictures and you'll see what I mean.

Your car looks extremely clean with those wheels/suspension setup. Great looking photos!

haha, thanks! I'm surprised at the picture quality, they aren't perfect, but not bad for an amateur with a nice DSLR. I've still got a lot to learn!

Thanks! I found a few other spots that would make for nice spots, but I'll wait for later when there aren't trucks going through, haha.
