1" drop, occasional scrapes with my lip. I like the look and the ride is fine. I just have Eibach springs on stock shocks.

I have Buddy Club on mine with a pretty conservative drop, about the same as eibach springs. Road hazards are definitely a problem with me, but I think it'd still be a problem w/out a drop. I don't really have any problems w/speed bumps or driveways as long as I'm cautious.

I have a 0.0" drop front and a 0.1" drop rear when the tank is full. I am trying to keep the painted parts of my car from touching the ground too often. I find this set-up ideal for self preservation. A 1" drop looks freakin' schweet though.

Everyone says Bilstein PSS9's are it.
I know George (MetalMan's turbo S2K) has JIC's but don't know anything about them on this car. Would be nice to hear from an owner.

I am only 0.003" dropped on the left because of my fat ass.

Before you drop it, how do you get into your driveway? Does your driveway slant all the way down to the street or is their a large bump at the end? Do you ever have to drive over any speedbumps?

I can't get into my garage at stock height without driving in at an angle. I would rather keep my car at stock height than have to buy a new lip and front end.

BTW, my car is still stock height. The signature is just meant to look cool. (P-chop)
