Would you rather go with Pro-Kit or Sportline?

I went with the Pro-kit because of my ground effects and to tell you the truth...I'm glad I did. If it were any lower I wouldn't like it. The Pro-Kit sets the F-body at a perfect hight and allows you have fun with it and not be so concious of speed bumps and driveways. Anyway, I will post pics tomorrow on this thread.

I had sportlines on my 35th and it wasn't too low at all. Of course, I didn't have ground effects though. Car didn't scrape one bit, and looked far better then the pro-kit drop (in my opinion). You can check the pics in my sig.

You probably wouldn't want to hard core drag with either set up, sportline or prokit. Drag springs are probably what you would be looking for.

Ya, those look pretty good, but not much different from what I got. I took some quick pics and put them in my 2002 35th anniversary Z28 folder. Better pics coming when I get my Halos and SLP whisper lid this week.
