Honestly, it's a fresh drop... it's only had a few days to settle.. I've cut like 15mm off the bump stop. Everything was installed properly and is looking good. It has already dropped some from its original stance. Any other suggestions besides just waiting?

Your car looks great, love the subtle graphics and how they tie in with the wheels...

You might want to consider Monroes for the front, Sensatracs drop it 1/2" because of the shorter length.

Thanks for the tip. I am considering "Air" for suspension down the road, but right now the Turbo has soaked all of my money up. Thanks about the graphics.. it's really subtle and it took me a while to get the triple tone idea down to make it tie in... I may do some more or elaborate on it, not sure yet.... I'd like to do something wild but it may end up being overkill..

Lazyness... The tape is now removed and it's very clean. I'm about to pull my headliner this weekend and door inserts and redo them all black. I was going for leather but i decided against it. Going to reupholster the back seats in cloth to match the racing seats. Also going to dye the pillars black and just keep it all dark... I'm in the midst of tearing the thing apart testing out some new headers and other beta goodies, so I've not been too 'hardcore' into keeping it as clean as I should. That should change soon...
