Kinda funny the short answer is no, the front will bottom out on bad roads and some driveways I don't even try. Like the speed bumps in front of Fred Meyers if I'm by myself I can creep sideways over them but if anyone else is in the car it will scrape.

The guy I'm getting the Borla from his z is lowered as much as factory will allow (mine is lower with the cut bushings) and I took a ride with him and was CRINGING through intersections that were uneven he was just plowing through.

I LOVE the look and it really isn't too hard to live with if you pay attention. I'll have to get better pics to show the tires to the fendors better. The front air dam thingy litterally is up about an inch and half from the ground. I may "modify" that a bit.

Eric I would lower it to as far as the factory settings will allow which is a decent hieght and see how you like that. The front is up too high in my taste but you will be fine on speedbumps driveways etc. You have to cut the bushings or buy modified ones to be the Vato I am

Yeah... I like his aesthetic.... He's almost there

You know it's too low when the wear patterns on the highway make your front airdam scrape in the middle

Some things that work in Texas dont work at all in the PacNW.
You almost ready for HPTuners?

I really liked the removable roof (in Texas) and a Pewter C5 and I really wanted a Z06. So I built a sort of combo. It was considerably faster than a stock Z06 though
