Finally dropped Autumn!
Well, about a week ago I finally threw in my Function&Form Type 2's on. They have been sitting in my closet collecting dust all this time! I'm actually disappointed about the front because I'd at least want it to match my rears but they're already maxed :[ Heres a quick pic from my crappy droid, will try and get more soon! Tell me what yall think!
Fresh after a carwash!

I really like the stance. Too bad our roads here are shitty plus we have 6 months of snow season.

Nice. Looks awesome, but I can't imagine how bad the ride quality is now. Function or Form...pick one or the other. :P

Looks good on stockies slammed.

Very nice! Your roads must not have a lot of potholes or speed bumps where you're at. So envious of that.

i think it looks great ... i'm not entirely sure it would be good to go any lower in the front however. NICE SETUP

-Well I honestly think they ride really well for being the height that I am. Just got to make sure I'm not driving over any potholes or I'll be bottoming out.

-My rears can rim tuck if I wanted, but the fronts wont drop any lower unless I drop my preload; which I am debating.

Way too low for my taste. I know many people like that though, so good work. A-Specs look nice.

Way too low for my taste...but I can respect the aggressive stance. I think you should bring the rear back up to match the front.

The oil pan isn't cheap, but what really racks up the $ is the labor involved in replacing it (having to drop subframe) that makes the whole fix 'hefty'.

Looks sick, but a little too low for me. But I am in MA where the roads have IAD's everywhere. The TL looks so complete with OEM add ons.
