Little update.

Found these at my doorstep tonight: Right out of the box:



Greased and adjusted. Front is all the way down and the rear has 40mm to go. I'm sure they will have to be adjusted some, but this should be a good baseline:



Also my new wheel color:


Its not everyones taste, but neither is a Kia. I'm just working with what I got.

I'm bored so I figured I would update this.

Ordered Megan coilovers and they will be here next week. Going to pick up some more steel wheels this weekend (I'm too poor for something cool).

So the plan is paint the wheels, mount the tires, install coils and spin them all the way down to see where I am at. I might have to get shorter springs for the front so I can be as low as I want to be. Part of the reason I went with Megan is they make the springs I could potentially need.

Getting there, but still room for more:

LOL@ KDM, love it!

This is a great looking Kia I **** when people won't touch a platform just because it's not trendy. Good job.

Its been a while since I've added to this and I lol'ed at a lot of the other shit I used to have on my car.

As it is now the tinted tails are gone and I am trying to sell the wheels to get coilovers. I plan on going down to SoWo, so I want to have it slammed by then.

I ended up hacking the shit out of the Eibach springs for lows. I have now taken 2 coils from the front springs, an 1.5 from the rear. I don't have pics of that yet, but here are some updated pics of the car:

When only 1 coil was cut:







As for cut coils, the ride is shitty but like I said I'm saving up for legit Coilovers.
