Got some mail today...

not bad considering an alignment alone can easily cost $70-$100. basically the install is costing you about $300. like i said, my friend paid $250...
 
Edit: bad news... for the mocc guy.


My dad doesn't want me driving down to long beach, and he doesnt trust people off the internet. So hes making me go to a shop.

Does $379 WITH alignment sound like a lot?
That's a bummer... 379 is terrible with an alignment... Compared to Hugh's or Gramps' prices. 100-150 for install plus 80 bucks for an alignment shop sounds much more reasonable.
 
interesting. well, according to this the info i have is slightly off. rear camber range on full tank is -.42/-2.42. which means i'm just outside of the recommended range.

no rubbing in front except for sometimes at full lock turn. the rears are what i had to work on...

I'd consider -2.5 close enough, especially with how much your dropped.
 
doing the rear struts and springs are easy the front are a pain, you have to take off the wheel and hammer out the metal piece the strut goes into with a block of wood, once its out its easy, just unbolt from the top, you might need to borrow spring clamps if the springs arent already on the strut
 
Ok here are some bad pics

Wheel gap is about 1finger in front and a little less than 2 in the back... I think
 
Looks dude good. cant wait to see bigger pics of it. :)

CWP= hotttt.

just a curious question but how old are you? just wondering since your dad wanted them installed by a shop.
 
what a tease! we need better photos... now!
you gonna stick to this height? can the fronts/rears go any lower?
 
Im 17 lol

Idk how long better pics will be, all i have is a point and shoot. I may lower more when it settles

Are those 18s? My car looks the same in the rear your front is a little lower than mine. By the way hows your rear is the right side same height as the left side? Im at the lowest on my KW v2s and the right side is actually a bit higher than the other side its not really noticeable but when you look closely the right side is a bit higher.

pretty sure they are 18in evo x wheels
 
same with the 17 yr old, and dont you have to let the springs settle, it takes like 100-150 miles, or something like that? and how much did you pay for those?


with your camera do some rear shots in macro mode like with the camera right against the bumper, it looks so clean like that
