Confused… if not going for hipster look why the stretch?

At least do it proper. Roll/pull the rears and go another .5-1" lower. It’ll look boss as fuck.

Confused…

How is lowering a clean car with non beefy tires to get the wheels flush with the fender a hipster look? Have you seen what hipsters do to their cars? People have been stretching for decades. Just because faggot hipsters tried to rape the style doesn’t make the rest of us love rusted body parts and sticker bombs. You need to learn something about automotive styling, culture, and origins.

Also why wouldn’t he roll/pull the fenders and go lower? Besides there’s a lot more to it to get it proper.

got my coilovers in the mail before i got home from my first semester last week. ollie is hopefully dropping off his e36 next week sometime with the rials for my vr4. it’s going to be very low for a while haha these megan’s are super adjustable so it’ll be a sweet improvement over my super soft lowering springs.

looking forward to seeing this car slammed. I can definately see the potential just from looking at the car as it sat with the work on the rear. some nice wide wheels and a little work would set that car off in my opinion

i’m already getting enough shit from 3SI about these next few pictures, but here’s what’s up: fitting 18x10 and 18x12 under my vr4, THESE ARE TEST FITMENT PICTURES, so don’t freak out like they did. i need spacers to clear my front brakes and some negative camber to make the rears tuck and it’ll look awesome in my opinion:

… i got suspended from 3SI because my dad who also uses and seriously contributes to the forums was trying to defend my post, and an actual mod was being a smartass about how he typed his post as well as mocked him, so i feel i did the right thing by telling him “F\*\*\* you”, seriously a MODERATOR whos probably some 27 year old kid mocking a 49 year old man who contributes to the community? i think i was justified defending my dad but i got suspended for idk how long… the mod told me i needed to cool down and learn something, ummm so i should learn it’s okay to disrespect a contributing member and mock them? good job 3si haha
