Default pics of prokit
Here are quick pics I took last weekend... As you can see the right side sits higher than the left side for some reason. I'm sure they are sitting correctly on the perch since I was with the installer and I made sure. Also a pic of my clearance

Now that looks goooood man...

Is it me or does your front driver fender look as if it was jacked up incorrectly?If that's the case,just take a rubber mallet and a wood block and "delicately" go after the weld where the panel is bolted to underneath.That weld gets crunched when a jack is improperly placed causing the fender to bulge.I'm sure you know about that but,just in case you didn't.

Sorry..just a pet peeve of mine.

Besides,the car is soo close to looking perfect!

Again,nice work on the car!Keep it up!

Did that hurt your traction? Does the car seem to hook better worse or about the same.

Here's pics of mine. I reused my Bilsteins from the SLP pkg & I'm very happy with how it rides & handles.

Sweet man. I love how it sits.

How's the ground clearance with the TD's? I have the same exhaust as you, but my tall speed bump phobia is keeping me from getting a prokit on my dd.
