Just wondering why you chose Dawn dish soap? Ive always heard to never use dish washing soap on automotive paint, its too harsh...... Ive personnaly never used it, but if it worked well for you.

I kind of thought that, but to be honest, I really like right where it sits. If I were to lower, it would maybe get a inch. Nothing more. Too much of a PITA to drive in MI.

Car is very sweet, just thought about an inch lower would make it perfect. Sucks your roads up there are so shitty.
