This is right after I bagged my car for the first time. I was very limited at the time for air suspension so we built one ourselves.


These are the brackets I had (black) and switched to (silver). It helped lower the car more but I sacrificed uppward motion. GRRRRR


After the install this is the slammed height I was able to obtain.



After alot of thought I knew that with the spirits body kit I would have to be able to go higher or I would be in some trouble so I bought a whole different set up for the front and this is what I was able to obtain lowering wise, it does go higher then before too.





Front


Rear


But all this came with a price to pay....



Let's just say to keep a story short, Don't let your air line rub till it gets a hole in it do to being in a rush. Then lets say while your pulled over and trying to replace an airline don't have your friends arm between the fender and tire and have the jack fall. Holy Crap I thought his arm should have been broken but we found out Wayne (Suspended) has arms of steel. LOL I'm glad we are able to laugh about it now.

So after all this I brought my car to a shop today for an estimate and my box should be going into the body shop tomorrow if all goes well, so keep a look out on progress pictures w/ all the Fabulous and Spirits Goodies!!!

Good news is now that my car is lower in the front, I'll be able to prob lay bumper on the ground what do you think?





Plans at the shop besides the obvious is to shave the front fender signals, the rear wiper, and the front face finisher. Pandanky, I'll getting a hold of you soon!
The Mercedes mirror turn signals will be coming soon. Should look like this--->



Once this is done, I'll have to take it a little bit more easy but Next will be the whole interior....

 

Dropped her off today to get all the goodies put on and to have the whole car repainted in TCM. I will be going there every other day or so to keep up on the progress and take pictures.

The Goodies







Test Fit Proving True JDM products are Superior to fakes regarding fitment and overall QUALITY.







Taking her to paint

 

cool stuff. tons of pics.

fender on arm , ouch.


try some braided lines , lil extra protection at a somwhat minimal price.

 

All lines have been rerouted through the strut tower instead of the fender well.

 

first off,
glad you're back home safe bro.

can't wait for everything to be down.

with all these mods,
i expect a badass wedding to come for you love birds!!!

 

After all this I can't afford to have a wedding. =0 J/K!

 

good luck with the project.

i always like your TopEnd group's styling.

 

What is the chrome spirit letters and that gas door thing about? Where will they go. Who makes that crazy looking exhaust? That tip looks over exagerated

 

The Spirits letters is a raised emblem. That other is not a gas door, it is a bonnet emblem. The Spirits emblem is going on the Hatch and i'm prob not going to use the others in order to keep things clean. Also the Exhaust if made to fit perfectly with the Spirits kit because it is a Spirits Exhaust.

 

Oh ok Thanks. Never heard of an exhaust made for a particular body kit. That's kinda cool. Post up some finished pics when done. I'm having a hard time visualizing the finished pkg. Peace.

 

Were did you get all of your spirit parts from, and how long did it take to order?

 

dang man, welcome back, and your box is gonna be sick,

cant wait to see the finished product!

 

www.myautofashion.com

They are the most helpful people that believe customer service is priority. It took about 2~3 months to get everything made and then shipped from Japan to Cali then to Florida.

 

That is going to be one sick box!!!! Can't wait to see it when it's done.

 

Is the Spirits wing styled like the bbist wing or is it the duck bill one that goes up instad of out (if that makes sense)...do you have any pics of test fitting the wing?

 

Thanks for sharing man!
Anyway... I love those wheels. I am really new at this car thing, so could you give me some details on them?
Thanks!
-Vince

 

Other way around my friend, bbist copied the spirits wing to make his own type II spoiler. I have the authentic version. Sorry no test fit on the wing.

Those Wheels are called Work Euroline DH's Special Order from Japan. Running 18x8.5 all around with a 205/40/18 stretched on there.

 

I knew that Spirits was the original true JDM product and that bbist was a replica...just didn't know what style the Spirits one was...so my wording made me look like a noob (I probably still don't make any sense)

Thank you for clearing it up though!

 

good stuff man. cant wait for the finished pics. sure love those wheels

 

oh i forgot to ask you where you got your chrome door covers from??
