Yeah, there has been some serious photoshop manipulation to this picture. Look at the rear wheel arches. Looks hot though...

 

Nope....it's a real image. He trimmed his rear arches so he could go lower.

I Fuggin love that car

 

This is mine on Koni's with 17in Motegi.

 

Here is one more pic.

 

Very sleek setup! Almost identical to mine, but I have painted arches. Did you replace your taillights with the 05-06 model lights?

 

Well in that case... congrats dude. Looks amazing!

Kalbone, when did you get a paint job?

 

He didn't. That BRG is ESMturbo on M|U and he lives in Hawaii

 

Those are two different colors. You have indi blue and he has purple

 

uh heee.

my bad. I feel like a dumba$$.

 

Needs more low. I bet you still have at least an inch of threads left on the bodies.

 

Hahah oh wow. I guess that's one of the many downsides of using an 8 year old Sony monitor. I could be in 256 color mode lol.

 

Maybe I overlooked some pics, but can someone tell me if the car will scrape a lot with 16" wheels and a decent drop (~1"). Most of the pics I saw looked like 17's. How much ground clearance you guys have with the 17's?

 

Depends on the tire size...but 1" isn't much of a drop. I doubt you'll scrape, but if you do, it'll just be the silly plastic lip that hangs down from your front bumper.

 

Thanks for the response. My target drop is to achieve "1-finger gap" between tire/fender, so I guess that's more than 1" LOL. If I increate the tire size too much, won't that affect the mileage registered to the car; I think I read something similar in another thread. I rather stick to 16's
