lowering the CL......

i just got my springs in the mail a few days ago and ive decided to lower my car 2.5 in the front and 2.25 in the rear, i thought it would be nice if anyone would post some pics of lowered cl's and write down how much they dropped it.
Sorry if i put this in the wrong forum?(pics)?

haha thanks legendary, youre up on me with that WW lip though, too bad WW went out of business, now I dont know what imma do. The sportlines are supposed to give you the same drop as with the neuspeeds, so im not really sure how much im lowered, im cant fit a finger in the rear gap and i can fit 1 in the front

yes, excellerate, the offical vendor first told me about it because i was asking him for prices on a WW lip, he said that they "shut down" for the "time being" and wont know the next time until they will open again. Their website is still up for some odd reason, but you can shoot em an email and they'll tell you all the details

you'll probably have substantial inner tire wear with that drop without a camber kit.

the camber kit and alignment is cheaper than buying new tires every few months
