Default coilover are in

I finally put my coils in and I am loving not only the look but the ride also, next on the list to put bags on the car after my stereo is complete. I wanted to go lower but worried about bottoming out.

Not a fan of slammed cars, but a huge fan of coil overs!

Looks great! Have you thought about blacking the chrome out around the windows? I think it would go good with the look you got going.

I'm not sure if it's supposed to be like that, but it seems like the back is sagging compared to the front

Looks great, are you going to leave it like this?

I had my megans spun down like that in back and the front spun down almost the same. I couldn't take the bottoming out and broke my upper ball joint in 1 week.

Order my air ride this week.

All depends on where in cali haha. Where I live the roads are cool...where I got to work the roads are terrible. But it sounds like people say NY has potholes the size of cars..so thats a different story haha

I thought about it when it got paint and just not the route I wanted to go.

It looks like it does I measured it and it seem to be right on, it may bc of the rear quarter being lower than the front plan on going a 1/8 to 1/4 lower in the front this week to see how it does.

I have about 3-4 inch lower the coilover will allow me to go down, I have most of my air just need to get teh bags from UAS and I can start to put it all in.
