Default New Pics incl. before/after with kgmm's

Sorry about the resolution guys. I take a crappy picture Just wanted to post a before and after pic since I installed the kgmm sports. Advertised drop of .69 all around but i think it's just a little more I did not want to go too low for 2 reasons:
1. The airwalker kit
2. The offset of the rear wheel (even though I'm sure I could of done an inch) The rear wheel has an offset of +45 and sticks out just a bit from the fender well. I think it makes the rear look wicked

Overall I am very pleased. The look has def. improved due to less gap between the wheel and fender. The ride is better than stock, kinda stiff... feels less bouncy. Steering is more responsive and there is a bit less oversteer. I'll have a better opinion once I get the allignment done this weekend. I'm gonna run it real hard and report back

I also posted a few other pics that i shot at work and a few from an Import show last weekend.... lemme know what u think.

Before

After

Good call...
You will find that the springs will settle slightly lower over time!
My HKS Springs has settled about 3-5mm low after 4 months now I think...
Cars looking good!

Your car is looking very nice! I think that the drop makes the car look more aggressive. Keep up the clean looking car mods.

Oh, can you tell that I just love that white car of yours.
