let me know what you all think!!!

i need suggestions on what to do next

 

rims would be next

 

agreed.

 

how did you lower it on stock suspension?

 

looks badass man.

 

Why did you remove front turn signals?

 

x3. But it does look really good so far..

 

Dope

 

looks good how did you lower with stock suspension?

 

Probably the heater hose mod or he cut his stock springs.

 

clean looking car.

 

I think a nice set of black rims would make it look great!

 

They were cracked, and I think they're ugly as hell anyway. Lol

 

lol, i figured that would be the first suggestion. i had a guy who was gonna sell me a set of asa's. look exactly like hp evos. but he sold em to someone else bc they offered more.

 

front springs are cut, rear is hose mod and cut springs

1 1/2 coils outta the front(no a/c equipment) id advise doing 1 coil)
1 coil out of the rear, but will be taking another 1/3 to 1/2 out.

right now im at a 1" rake. cement to fender in the front is 26 1/16 rear: 27 1/4

 

Why didn't you just buy lowering springs instead of hacking your stocks?

 

^^^^ Maybe because it didn't cost him a thing to lower it on stock springs.

 

Isnt cutting the springs not recommended?

 

Really?!?


Stock springs are not designed to be cut, estupid. *facepalm*

Lowering springs are tuned to handle

 

mexicans do it all the time on honda's it looks KILLER!!!
