Default Lowered on FM5s
I recently lowered my WS6 with BMR lowering springs so I wanted to get some updated pictures to share.







It started raining so I didn't get any others, sorry!

egott is the Fbody makeover guru..no pun... I'm dead serious! If you don't take anyone elses advice take his! You do the ceta in the same gunmetal color and it will set your car off so well!
