Stanced f bodies are nice to see especially when there done right. Regardless if its stanced for a drag race or for style it all makes the cars look alot better. That white ss showed both flavors of stance for this genre and pulled it off well. Slammeds car is just on an entirely different level so dont knock it till you see the work hes done.

I totally agree and thank you very much! I wish I could keep the same gap on front with drag setup as street setup but the extra sidewall cushion lowers the car a bit and I have a deep tranny pan with cooling fins and it was merely an inch off the ground so I had to raise it some. But now I just roll around with the 15s rather then the 17s.

My mom doesn't like silver cars. She says that silver makes the car look "naked" or "unfinished".

IMO silver is just not an eye appealing color. But in this case and very few others silver looks great.

I think silver cars are freakin sweet. they're easy to accent with black, and are easier to keep clean. Although I do like my NBM the best overall.

Wait for it.... wait for it.... Monroe Sensa-tracs!

Not sure how much it dropped, but here's my exact setup for reference...

Strano Springs
1. Kept Isolators in the rear
2. Added heater hose to both the top and bottom coils

Monroe Sensa-trac shocks in front and rear

Front Wheels: 18" x 9.5" C5 DD Wheels with 275/35/18 tires
Rear Wheels: 18" x 10.5" C5 DD Wheels with 295/35/18 tires
