    Default Installed my BCs today

    I wish I had done this a year ago, not sure what I was waiting on to be honest. I did the install myself in my garage and it wasn't too hard but the rear was kind of annoying.

    I'm trying to decide if I want to go lower or not. It's not very low right now, but looks pretty good. I'm thinking maybe a half inch more all around but I'm open to suggestions.



    *edit - More Pictures

    Looks pretty damn good to me. if you want ..you can get away with another 1/2 inch in the rear.

    Where are you in Texas? Going a 1/2" lower than stock here in West Texas would destroy the car.

    Id leave it like that personally...I keep raising my rear cause I like a positive rake even tho a negative is supposed to handle a little better.
