Thanks guys. The springs lowered it about 1' and 1/2 in the front and 1' in the back. Ride quality is awsome not very bumpy at all. I love it and makes my car look way better.

wow, looks much better now!

but why are you getting your cf hood repainted to red if you're going to repaint the whole car anyway? why not keep it the cf color (which looks great on red cars IMO) until you are ready to have the whole car painted?

that is an amazing transformation from the stock height, no offense but that height previously was hideous especially with huge 19"? rims. i'd go lower personally hehehe love the new look and good luck with the future mods, keep us updated -R

I have heard very good things about the S-Techs. Your car looks sick! Tell me where you got them and how much installed please! Our cars are great looking, I am definitely buying 16" or 17" black spoke/chrome lip with s-techs.

edit: lemme know where you bought the clear side markers too man

I got sidemarkers and the clear turns from PCP but don't think they sell sidemarkers anymore. Hopefully will get a couple new shots of my car this week.

there's something about those rims (and the location of the sidemarker) that makes that car seem much more of an expensive luxury car than a sporty japanese car. it kinda reminds me of an aston martin.
