Hello coming in from Houston TX

Exterior mods:

Running on Megan Coils with minor adjustables to achieve height.
Topspeed Exhaust.
Matte Black roof and rear valence overlays.

Running a very tiny but not really noticeable reverse rake in these pictures. But current setup is now in proper stance.

Will update picture when wheels come in.


This picture, I have like 4 jacks and couple other things in my trunk.. But rear is still almost as low.

Update: Roof overlay is now Carbon fiber.

Oh yeah sorry bout that, it' definitely the same :p I never noticed that the doors are framed into the side skirts like that. I think the gaps between body panels are just more obvious in those photos and that color! Looks great man!

In all honesty, the wheels are not THAT bad for stock 17''s. Better than 16''s by far.

My girlfiend has the same car and the drop honestly looks 1000x better......especially with those wheels. Those wheels dont look bad at all, better tham some of the aftermarket crap people throw on thier cars.

Looks great.

Lol thank you! The rims aren't too shabby, but I'm throwing on some wheels really soon!
As for handling, it handles like a beast... First installation the settings were set at (1 hardest - 32 softest) 1 being most stiff. The turns were snug to the corners. But in all honesty, Megans, even with softest settings is not daily friendly. The rides are really on the stiff side. But after riding with hard settings for so long. No matter how bumpy my friends tell me it is from factory, the softest settings feel like luxury to me lol.

Thank you very much! Yea, stockies are doing it for me right now. Plus weather in Houston is really crappy right now. So my car doesn't get to see much outside air. Plus even if I do drive it, thank god I have stock wheels to deal with it.
