How Low can I go part Deux!!
Well as some of you may have seen in my other thread. I dropped my car lower. I got lots of inputs and some of you guys were saying that my car was uneven and the front needed to come down lower. It was such a nice day today i decided to take so snaps of the readjustment I made. Thanks for all inputs on my last thread.

Here is a before pic:

DYI: Headlights:



Still think its Photochopped?

Looks good, Did you paint the inside of the turn signal (around the bulb) black also? How does it look turned on at night with no reflector?
