That’s about the gap I want…2 fingers…Don’t want to be slamming it then replacing oil pans every month.

Laurier, yeah the hyperblack is sweet eh, almost has a bronzeish look, then turns gunmetal in the dark, and sometimes silver in the sun. I love it!

recent pic…not a full side profile but its enough.  
I love the height, all its got are precedeo japan springs…maybe about a 1.5" drop which makes it look low but not slammed. HOLY someone get a pic of Christians car, finger gap = -2 lol, tucked right under :E

i ahve tein s-techs on stock struts for now. i’m getting kyb AGX’s soon. i find my setup a little low for winter driving but it handles really nice. really stiff in the front but not that much in the rear. with aftermarket or HICAS bars i find oversteer really easy to acheive :E

The front of the convertible was a bit worse than that first pic when I first got it. The week iI had it I cut the front coils an inch and it was still higher.

uGH I keep forgetting the tire size…but no, they’re not shorter than stock. The stock wheels and tires measure up almost exactly the same height as the new ones. I checked so that I’d know if my speedo would be messed up. I’ll post another pic when I get home, and list tire size. They’re some shitty “Champiro” brand…meh, all the more fun to burn off.
