Ow and Ive never lived in rhode island and delt with a slammed kitted car in winter before.......

Its your car you want it to look like shit its your decision, but learn how to take critisism.

LOL seriously?

i love the bashing on this forum hahah

but seriously with a lowered car your gonna break shit reguardless of the road conditions

Exactly.. personally I'm fine with the ride height where it is.. but this guy seems to think he's the be-all-end-all driver who can "negotiate" turns no problem. I'll have pictures later for you of a nice daily driveway/road I have to negotiate. It is not FEASIBLE for me to do this to my daily driver that I want to keep looking good.

Sorry to not impress you with my car not being 2" lower. Like I give a eff.

They did suggest that we bring in your gas door and some of the left over paint so they can try to analyze it.. I'm thinking this will be a better option than just simply respraying it w/ the paint again because it will probably still be lighter than the rest of the car once dried.. the paint most likely may need a bit darker tone to match the car..

LMK..

i have a daily driveway and road car and its 3ins of the ground (just measured up front)
u know u still have to becarful with that kit at stock height.. ull still scrape in areas and the aas with crack and shit so easly espically up front with those holes..
u should of filled them in

the AAS kit looks good for the first month of it being on your car, then you get all these spider cracks in the paint and eventually its turns out like a pos, mine last about a year lol.

[pimpalero2003]

6months...
u need to brace it too my front always moved when on higway it would flap where as my ********* doesnt

[rowdygls]

Mine has never flapped going down the highway and the only place I've had spider cracks was the front by the goofy holes on the bottom and the corner of the back that starts the wheel arc

hah the rear was a tight fit, had to really pull to mount it to the rear fenderwell piece

of course i know i need to drive with awareness that the kit is lower, i scraped that black airdam multiple times

[rowdygls]

Please tell me you're going to paint the bumper support a different color.

dude it's like 20 degrees, not yet.

[rowdygls]

Actually what I used was the spray-on chassis rust proofing stuff. I keep forgetting you don't have a heated space readily available.

yeah and it's going to suck, like 4-6 inches of snow in areas and tons o slush for me to work with installing the rest of the kit now lol
