Whats up with the front diving down so much? Is that the WW kit that does that or something you did to it? Just curious.

Really nice looking ride though

Dive down? Not sure what you mean, but I've done nothing to it, that is how the WW kit is.

That shows it, basically the bottom if way higher at the wheels than it is at the tip of the car. Doesn't look bad, just wondering why it does that. I don't recall seeing that on any car, but I haven't seen the WW kit in a while. I know my TA doesnt tilt down like that so I'm guessing the kit is just slanted that way.

Also, I really like those rims. They the 17x8 Hopsters? They're different but still really nice. Is it lowered at all?

BTW the car looks great. Very nicely done. One of my favorites.

Probably just an optical illusion but your front end does look like it's taking a nose dive for some reason.

Very nice shots though. I love Black fbody's.

I think it is just the slant of the formula nose, and the angle at which he took the pic.

the front piece does look like it's curving up towards the wheels.. usually they go straight back and line up with the side skirts

Ok, I see what you are talking about. I'm not positive as to why it does that, but it might be because the front seemed to lower more then the back when I put the springs on it. So yes it's lowered almost 2 inches. Again, not positive, but it would make sense to me. Also those are the Hopsters, but are 17x9.5.

And thanks for the comments to the rest of you too.
