That is without a doubt one of the nicest TA's I've seen. The stance and the wheels are awesome. If I had a TA, I'd of done it up the same way, great job!

Slammed-Am: I dont really know, I liked the Camaro because it was fast and very fun to drive around. I like the T/A because you dont see as many around and I like the 6 speed

ZEEMAN:They are Dynamic Motorsport springs, almost like a Prokit in the rear and Sportline in the front. Try www.dynamicmotorsports.com.

Brew: You found me! I got your message last night but I was busy packing and stuff. We will get together and go cruise when I get back in town next week.

Everyone else thanks for all the nice comments, keep em coming.

Call DMS up and see if they will sell you just the two fronts.

Yours looks taller in the back than a prokit at least to me it does. Mine is BMR but after they settled mine sits about 1/4" higher than a prokit front sits maybe 3/4" lower than stock.

Car looks real good I can't wait to finish mine up

And how much did they lower the rear? Will it lower my car any less in the front due to my 18s instead of 17s
