pic of my ride

Hi guys- I've been on the forum for a while now, but his is my first attempt at getting an image on here. So beare with me. I was only get able to get one up for now, but I'll try and get some more up later. Let me know what you think! And by the way I know it needs to be lowered. Springs should be here soon. Here's the link;

thanks for your comments veen120. I'm waiting for my tein springs to come in. Also my car has tints, 35% all around. As for the kit, I only put the side skirts on for right now, I might add the rest later. Thanks again!

Drop it, add the rest of the bodykit. Then it will be sweet.

Car looks pretty good so far. But I agree with everyone else, you need to get the front and rear part of the kit and drop the ride height. BTW, whats the offset on those rims ?

I have a set of H&R sport springs (1.75" F / 1.5" R) that I don't need anymore since I got the Teins. I'm located in Queens/Nassau, so PM me if you're interested. BTW, I had the springs on with my 19x8 +49 offset with no rubbing at all, even with passengers in the back.

Thanks for all of your comments. I know it badly needs to be lowered. Just not sure what springs I want to go with. The offset on the rims is not ideal (+42), so I'm trying to find a spring that gives me the look I want with creating and rubbing issues.

gohan- I'm in sounthern westchester but I am in LI sometimes, so it's possible you've seen me.

Just added another picture. Nothing special, just a different angle.

Thanks. I would but I'm leaving for vacation this afternoon for 2 weeks. next time though. I know it needs to be dropped. just trying to decide which springs to go with. As for the rest of the kit, IMO I think it would be too much. I like having just the skirts. Just my opinion.
