Dropped!

Just dropped my baby....thought I would take some pics. Bought a used set from "Topher33884". Springs- Eibach Sportlines, Front shocks- Tokico Blue, Rear shocks- Tokico Illumina's. Very impressed with the drop and ride quality. Heres some pics!

NO DROP












DROPPED

Thanks man, Fronts were super easy, back were a little more difficuly because the bolts that I had to remove(so I could free up the shock to remove it) were rusted on there. But some PB Blaster and a hammer does the trick!

sarcastic?

I dropped it with Eibach's Sportlines. I'm liking them a lot so far. The setup really made a difference with handling.....I’m pretty impressed. I thought when I lowered it the ride quality was going to really go down. But, it turned out to be just perfect.

it's not always a harsh ride after a drop. it depends what you're dropped on and if it's done right. quality springs and shocks really make a difference.

haha thanks guys....I dunno though I'm likin it without the kit. I mean I already have scraped the front lip I can't even imagine how it would be with the lipkit. Don't get me wrong I LOVE the look of the lipkit and if I had the opportunity I would definitely get one. But for now I am perfectly fine with the look of the car.

Nice.Front shocks- Tokico Blue, Rear shocks- Tokico Illuminas. Any reason? Why not all blue or all Illuminas?I lowered on stock shocks so later need to replace mine soon.

Yup guy before me had a huge system in the trunk and he wanted to be able to adjust the dampening in the back. He would scrape on certain stuff with just the blues on.
