King of Pain's WDP

I thought I would share some new pixs of my ride. I added the body kit and the new wheels I picked up from Lokius last week.

Thanks for the comments:

The drop is on Tien H-Tech springs, about a 1 inch drop all around.

Thanks for the comments.

I promised myself a year ago I was going to leave this car stock. Yea Right!!

The drop is on Tein H-Tech springs, 1 inch drop. I wanted a little more than the A-Spec drop.

Here is another pix.

nice job KOP. Looks like the modding bug finally got you haha!

Also, if you really are 47, that's cool as sh*t! Glad to see older guys taking ownership of their cars and having some fun with their money.

Yea,

I'm 47, My son says I'm older than dirt.

Here's a picture of me at the last mega meet.


[IMG][/IMG]


Just Kidding. That's not really me. LOL LOL LOL


I got the wheels for $1,500.00 from Lokius. Great guy. The wheels have been passed onto another WDP TL

The lip spoiler is a maybe.

The 1 inch drop is perfect for me.

No problems with the 1 inch drop. I took it to the dealer for an alignment 2 weeks after the drop. They were able to get it back to specs and mentioned that the stock struts can take a 1 inch drop with no problems. Anything more than 1 inch then it will need a camber kit. Another reason I went with the H-Techs. On stock wheels it rides very good. I would compare it the the A-Spec suspension. With the 19s it rides little more firm.

No need to spend too much if you're a DIYer.

I did the audio system, CAI, RSB, Body kit and Ipod mod. It saved me a big $$.

The tint was done by Best Window Tinting in Tustin and the Springs were install by Heeltoe Auto.

Love the Body Kit! Love the wheels! Does the Injen CAI really make the car perform better, and how much louder is the car because of it? Your car is a real beauty.

When can I come check out your car? I want to see the suspension. I'm debating which springs.

You're in Corona, right?
