I did not remove the rear bumpstops, I did trim them down a bit though and yes it rests on them.

I did nothing with the exhaust, running the stock torque arm still.

Same with the front nothing other than install the shockwaves. I still have room to go lower in the front if I can find a way. I'm thinking BMR 1" lowering A-Arms.

i'm pretty sure i'm the one with the ebay front lip that ur talking and PM about! i love the stance of your ride! i'm on intrax lowering springs and it's as far as i'm going to lower my ride without air bag suspension which i wish i can have! i've been lookin into the new 19in Niche Milan Staggered Concave rims(maybe 20in) hopefully to get a nice stance like yours! your pics give me a good idea of what i'm working with as far as size and off set! Please post pics of the lip when u get it on the car.

If you squint real hard with your head turned sideways and one eye closed, I swear, it looks just like an F body.

,

It was done professionally by a friend of mine. He paints all my cars. The paint itself was custom made. The centers are universal from Ebay, as well as the little eagles.

Total cost of the job....$150.00
