yes yes not vip styled but i like my car :) dont worry i got 20s on the way! also im still having suspension issues!! i got the lip put on and then i decided to raise my car up a bit about .75" higher. I got megan coilovers. i lowered the preload spring so i can raise the sleeve up out of the bottom shaft it screws in to. I raised it up about 1" and raised the preload spring back up to set the stiffness. Then i measured and locked everything in and then i start to drive its starts bouncing horriblly and i hear a horrible thudding sound all when i hit minor bumps. today i raised the preload spring more and then put everything back together and then the bouncing went away and now the thudding is still there just not as bad!! And the funny part is NONE of this was happening before or after i got into my accident and the day i picked my car up. ONLY happened AFTER i raised my car up!
any idea guys??
anyways enjoy the pix and dont mind the double sided tape on the lip i got to remount that!!

sounds like the uca issue, although it doesn't make sense why it would happen when you raise the car.
simple solution: slam that mf.

Those wheels suck balls, and he's got a super huge kit to make his car look a lot lower. It's not going to look the same with your car.
Slam your car, and learn how to not let it scrape.

Really, it's not that much risk. I'm more worried about my frame rails scraping than the front bumper. You should try it, it's actually not that bad, and looks a helluva lot better when it's lowered, even that .75 inch that you lost when you raised the car.
