Your right. The only oil proving to Micro-polish high wear surfaces are overrated

I had a 96 chevy cavalier that I took a butane torch to the coil springs. 5 minutes on each spring dropped my car 2 inches all around. I looked up old school ways to lower your car and got that idea. They used to put a bunch of sandbags in their trunk to make it look lower. Then cutting the springs is too much work. Blown shocks SUCK!!! The ghetto lowering will blow your stock shocks within a year max if you do any racing. Now that I have coilovers I laugh at myself.

Since you got a welder, go look at FlatBlackIan's Nico rally car thread. He made his own power brace.

remove your back wiper if you have one.

remove that god awful rust causing rubber spoiler.

remove the fabric of the door panels if you want. it looks better IMO.
