Default My AP1 as low as GC will go

After some more modifications inside the rear quarter panel, all my rubbing issues were allievated in hopes of finally "tucking tire." Well, to my dismay, ground control wasn't up to the task. This is absolutely all the way down (yes the front also). So now I have to upgrade to KW v3 to finally get the look I want. I had to roll the expletitive deleted out of the rear fenders and now there finally is room.

Also, I'm going with the Mugen FRP hardtop. Would you guys reccomend painting it Spa to match, or go Berlina and give it that two tone effect? Thank you for the input.

I think the drop is fine.

I'd get an OEM hardtop since you don't have any body work...

Hm.

The reason I asked is because I've been trying to tuck 18x8 - 225/35/48 (front) 18x9 - 245/35/50 (rear) for the past two weeks. I suppose that ultimately I'll have to alter my fenders even more so that what you have altered yours.
Thanx.
