Hahah they all blend in after a while don't they!? I used to be a static snob (not implying you are) but am now new to the air world. Definitely a whole different ballgame. Still cant launch speedbumps, but simplifies the easiest of entries and exits. Can't complain about the fitment you can achieve though! After spending $18,000 i didn't wanna drag it all over the ground and buckle fenders.

not saying there's anything wrong with bags, I want some too but my car is a DD and winter is a no no. I just remember someone saying the thread was for static DDs only but I guess it could be another forum. Too many to keep up with, hardly even on any forums anymore these days.

Even though I am in the slammed thread, some people still don't like crazy camber. That being said, this is how i got her right before the snow started to come (I'm in Colorado) then put stocks on so I can get around town. Will be back like this, with better fitment up front come March.

Michael, that's some crazy camber but looks great! Very nicely fitted

JJ still owns his TL. Nice.
Aggressive as fuck...are your fenders being raped to accomplish that?
Also, the blacked out diffuser but untouched clear inner portion on the headlights it throwing off my OCD in a major way.

Token, loving the wrap...20's seem, well, ummm...FUCKING BIG. Not a bad look though...I dig it.

Mike, you ride that low in Colorado!?!? Dude, you must be smoking...
Looks good though...

You all opting to wrap rather than keep your paint pristine?

Haha! I have actually never stepped into a recreational shop. I just stick to my IPA beers.

Wouldn't our wraps be keeping out paint pristine? Thick bra on the whole car!

Good point, man...

I guess I don't like it as an alternative to keeping the paint nice. But it's also cause I'm too cheap to get it done!

Yes we do! It is just a lot easier, spray it down with soap, wipe it down and you're done.

FWIW, in order for the wrap to actually adhere on the car for an extended amount of time, the paint underneath has to be extremely clean and free of contamination. Mine was fully detailed (minus adding a wax or sealant) before install. So, in theory, when I take it off it should be pretty shiny underneath still.

And I'm sure from all the detailing products you've spent over the years you could have gotten a wrap or two

Thanks! To be honest I don't know the offsets. I will probably have to do the measurements/calculations to figure it out.

That is super low, If you weren't on bags it'd be hell to drive.

Well I don't drive this low as pictured because this is the all down position (when parked). I am still figuring out a good drivable ride height because of the terrible road conditions. I constantly have to raise up a little more when driving in most scenarios like uneven roads, dips, bumps, potholes, etc. I'm soon getting close tho.
