Well i hate teasers so ill show you what i got

iphone quality sucks but i have a amateur photographer in the works

FnF Type 1s used. I wanted D2s but for the price that was offered i couldnt refuse. Previous owner used them for a month before going back to stock and selling his 04 TL 6spd.

Just in case you missed my previous thread on my ride heres a before shot.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/ayodeebo/5949589248/http://www.flickr.com/photos/ayodeebo/5949589248/ by http://www.flickr.com/people/ayodeebo/, on Flickr

once my friend wakes up we can get started on it and hopefully it should be done. any advice will be highly appreciate it. if we can't do them today then we will have to wait till the end of the month due to me not having any days off till then.

Enjoy!

Very nice. I'll have to keep my eye out for your car. Maybe I can get you and your buddy to help me lower mine when I'm ready.

washed the ride. I had to raise the car due to not being able to get in the garage. A small sacrifice but oh well

Looks like a completely different car! Nice work...double check your height. In that last pic you're sitting way lower in the rear.

It's a 24 1/2 inch from bottom of wheel to bottom of the fender on all 4 sides. It's on a steep hill that's probably why you're seeing it like that.

Thanks for all the positive comments you guys. The main reason why I had to raise it was to get in the garage. After hearing on previous threads on cars left outside I wanted my ride in the garage period. I'll drop it for photoshoots but it has to be raised back up. A small sacrifice but I'm willing to do it lol

One more for you guys

Nice shot^^^.

I'd like to see the garage entrance, to see why you need to raise it.
