My progress so far (cell phone pics)

I thought I might share what I've been up to the past few weeks... the auto adjust on photobucket makes my car look pink. Its not pink

A couple cans of flat black and two days time (cuz I'm lazy) will get you this



No more chrome wipers!








I originally left the A gold but decided to paint it black




I painted my calipers black too but the cell phone pics were terrrrrible so I didn't put them up


I ordered some suspension techniques lowering springs and some adjustable ball joints...

I only got the front half done today






Here's the rear

Now for the good pics

Here we go ladies...





















I'm happy with the drop... Its low but not so low I scrape on every bump. The thing I like most is the handling!! Definitely get better acceleration and deceleration too.

So this is your energy suspension lowering springs on stock struts? Or did you buy new struts too?

Thanks guys...

The rims are just some cheapo Konigs. You should have seen the old rims on there

I bought Suspension Techniques lowering springs. I plan on buying some new struts soon or just riding it out till I can get some coilovers.
