I agree too low in the front, and your car would look so much better without the front plate.

Looks awesome, and love the hood. I had an order on one right before he decided to quit making them and do viper stuff. Now he's making them again, but I had bought a raptor hood. Might have to change them out.

thanks to all that responded. Planning on bringing the front up about 1/4 inch but the rear is as low as I can get it and still drive around and get on base. There is a 2 1/2 inch spike strip doing off the base and with TDs the exhaust sits right at 2 1/2 inches from the ground. As for the plate cover, that is is work. Gotta get the car registered in a different state first so the base cops wont trip. And yes the front bumper has been repainted, and it is a shade darker then the rest of the car. Normally you can't tell but it all depends on the lighting

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe ever since November 1, 2006, Texas doesn't "Require" you to have a front plate. I hope I'm not wrong, because I'm running without one. I'm stationed in San Diego and I've never had a problem yet (knock on wood).
