Looks great.
I lowered mine not to long ago.
I didnt go quite that low cause I didnt want to scrape every single thing on the road.

call A&A corvette and get the frame savers, You gonna give up a little something for "that look", but its worth it to me. I cut the front bushings in the front, and used WCC Long bolts. about a 1.5 in gap from tire to fender on the front and rear.
Thanks

DO you really gain that much handeling that you would sacrifice hitting every drive way and possibly every curb??
1.0 G is planty good for me on STOCK height!

to gain alot elsewhere, meaning the appearance. Handling improvement is minimal in my opinion, if it all. I drove the hell out in New Orleans a few days ago. I didnt scrape at all. In fact just alittle on my own driveway, and not the frame, but the plastic on the very bottom lightly, but I have frame savers on it. I think the excuse not do it because of scraping has been overstated
It just looks better :drive: in my opinion so to answer your question , YES its worth it :nod:

I use to have my car slammed, but on stock shocks it road like a truck on bumpy surfaces. Now on the highway the car was smooth. I brought it up an inch all the way around and the ride quality improved greatly.

just curious on how much you spent to drop it and what you all needed. Your car looks SICK man! lot better than the stock height.
I think it's beautiful. :D Thanks for posting.

I spent 50 bucks and 2 hours time to do it, thats it
Get the lowereing bolts from WCC, and the front costs you zip.

I lowered my car 4 inches.The front air damn scrapes on everything,but it's on a hinge,after 4 years of abuse,i'm still on the stock one from 1999.I did trim it in half from side to side.The air damn is about an inch off the ground,and the frame is 2 1/2" from the ground.
