So the rear wheel is slightly tucked. i have a 15mm spacer that will be placed on the rear wheels only as the front is almost exactly flush.

I plan on replacing the hood next with a carbon fiber one & then boosting

Looks great. You may want to get the five axis body kit, it looks great especially when your car is lowered. Just be careful of the ____ty road condition in canada.

Much lower. My seats are very deep. But then again I have rail on the driverside for adjustments. The seat is bolted directly to the seat bracket.

Wait, you HAVE a sliding rail on the drivers side? I've been looking at new seats because my hair touches the roof when I sit in a proper driving position

Yeah I'm right at 6 2". Since you have taken everything out, do you have a guess on how much lower you would sit with rails over the stock setup?

i'd say im at sitting at least 4 inches lower. but it all depends on the style of the seat is. this is one of the deepest buckets i have seen. id say if you want that kind of drop id look at getting into a bride low max.

Since you asked for input, I'm really not liking the wheels. But, to each, their own.
