                Well, they fit. Haven't adjusted the coilovers yet, it obviously needs to come down quite a bit still, that will happen tomorrow.

                      Spent some quality time today doing this:



                      Then I finally got to mount the wheels on the car and adjust the coilovers. And then...

                      FUCK.

                      My front coilovers are cranked all the way down and I still want to go at least a quarter inch lower.

                      It doesn't look bad, it just doesn't sit how I'd like it to. It's not as high as it looks in these pics though, my driveway isn't quite level so the suspension is cross-loaded a bit. Hopefully I'll be able to get a few better pics in the next couple days.

                        that looks really good. you should def find a way to get those coils down a little more.

                        i also think it'd look better if you powder coated the faces a diff color too. nice work so far though

                          Man, that looks really good as is. Once you get it down a bit more it's going to be near perfection. Definitely love this car, and the fact that you have great taste nice job man!

                              Can you remove the lower collars on the front?

                              Looks epic, by the way!
