Default Installed Sportlines (pics)

well i finnaly got my car lowered after 2 years of owning her.. i didnt wanna get these springs cuz i knew they sat LOW! but so far im pretty happy with them. stance looks good, and since real nice and low. ive just had to be extra super carefull over certain spots now. only think im worried bout is breaking my electric cutout..but other then that im good.. heres some before and after. sorry for the crappy quality. ill get some better ones very soon.

HA! Look what he drives...Maybe he's a big fan of the 4x4 look!

Looks good stangkiller! I have the Sportlines, and I love them! It will take some getting used to, but before long you'll RARELY scrape.

Congrats
