Default Quick new pic of the car

I took this awhile ago but thought I'd throw it up here since a few people asked why I hadn't posted a pic since the coilovers went in. I'll put up more once us locals meet up for a fall photoshoot to break in the sweet new camera Hiwords bought recently.

Anyway the car is sitting at 25" ground to fender up front, as opposed to 27.5" on the S4 setup I ran before. The rear is at a hair over 26" whereas it was 27.5"ish as well (that's where the prior owner had them set). I'll level out the rear to 25" as well when I change my rear right wheel bearing in the near future, but I don't honestly mind the slight nose-down stance it has now. See my sig for a comparison to the S4 stance. Anyway, this is how it sits now - flame and hate away lol

he's lying. you see those wheels? now imagine the car with 16" steelies. that's what his car really looks like. i know i'm a donkey. but you gotta agree, it does look better than the S4 setup. now if only he would get better springs, he wouldn't have to worry about dipping lol. now i'm gonna put up some pix when my friend answers me about my camera.

An inch lower around here means I need to stock up on oil pans first. Our roads look like the ones in Beirut and I dodge potholes and manhole covers as it is.

if sparks don't fly, you're too high.
