Lower than Nick!! - Sportline pics!!!!
Here's my rebound to MY paintjob you stole <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> I hereby remove your title of 'slammed' <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
Ok...after several years of reading about Pro-kits and Sportlines...i bit it and went for the Sportlines anyway. If i didn't like them, i could always get a pro-kit. Result: Pornography with 4-wheels. It looks amazing. It handles better than expected even with stock shocks (will replace this summer w/ Bilsteins). With 17x11s and 315s in the back, i didn't have to bang in ANY fender wells, roll any lips, trim any bump stops or ANYTHING. It's amazing. I don't understand all the bad opinions. I guess i lucked out. However, my Fikses did cause the car to sit up a tad bit higher than stock, so that may have something to do with it. But man...these puppies are staying on the car. Chalk me up for another satisfied Sportline user. PICS!!:

BTW, something you might want to try...paint the nostrils silver. For some reason, it only works on silver cars and looks baaaaad. Just an idea. I really like your car a lot..especially the main-street gas station photos. <img border="0" alt="[chug]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_chug.gif" />

Thanks, I think I will paint them silver after seeing yours. I was also thinking of taking all the blue accents off and making clear lenses for the sidemarkers. Like this >> www.fryrice.com/images/smooth.jpg

Re: Lower than Nick!! - Sportline pics!!!!
Haha, that looks sweet John! I have the prokit, but my car weighs 3100 lbs, so it doesn't exactly sit the way its supposed to. After living in Houston for two years, there is no way I'm going to lower the car anymore (especially with true dual 3" piping and longtubes). Mine is actually lower in the front a tad, but I raised it up a couple months ago so I could actually get into my driveway <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />
I am driving back down to Houston for the summer, we should definately meet up and get some pics of the two baddest WS6's around <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />

Re: Lower than Nick!! - Sportline pics!!!!
There is no need to try to make the clear marker for the front because they sell them. It is the same piece for the rear of the camaro. I believe they were from afterthoughtsauto.com. Not real sure though.
They look bad### on black, and am sure would look nice on silver!

Re: Lower than Nick!! - Sportline pics!!!!
BAD###!!! I am IN LOVE with my silver WS6 all over again... gotta ask though... how'd you make your side markers black? Is it just paint? If so.. what is the process??

Silver WS6 TA/Formulas are my favorite <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
Looks badass John!
PS, I still like black nostril grilles better <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Re: Lower than Nick!! - Sportline pics!!!!
I think Eibach is insane, I have the Pro kit on my car and the rear of my car is lower than yours. My tire is flush with the top of te fender opening. I have the HAL 12 way adjustables so I adjusted the fronts to match the back.
I will have to get some pics and post them.

Just an observation: From the pix, your tires look like they would hit the fender. Maybe you have factory spacers under your bumpstops - otherwise your tires would hit.
When my rear axle bottoms out (ie take the springs out and lift the axle up into the car) the tires tuck up under the fender lip. My car sits pretty low, but still well clear of the bump stops:
