Default Got the pro kit and wheels on! (updated pics)

Well, I got the springs on the car, Eibach Pro Kit. I really love the new stance and the handling improvements. Overall, the install wasn't bad at all. I still haven't tackled the LCA reloc. brackets because I wasn't clear at first how they went on on my car but now I think I've got it figured out. Good thing too, because I've picked up a bit of wheel hop that I didn't have before.

I also got the new Chrome 10 Spokes on too! They really made a huge difference in the looks of the car.

Here's a pic I took in the garage tonight. I'll take some better ones and post them later when I get a chance.

Let me know what you think.

These cars almost have to be dropped a bit. Nice!

The car looks great If you don't mind me asking, how much was the Eibach kit, and how difficult was the install?

I ordered the lowering package from Thunder Racing that had the springs, BMR adj. panhard bar and the LCA reloc. brackets.

Looking good! What a big difference it makes with a drop and some shiny wheels...makes the car look 10 times better. Nice touch.

Yeah, I agree. It needs something besides the stock insert up there, I just can't make up my mind which option I want to go with.

I'm also thinking that I want to go with a power antenna (the stocker really is an eye sore, you can really see it in that one pic) and clear corner lenses (with extra rtv to stop the aquarium effect).

Thanks for the input, it is very appreciated.
