He's right. It definitely needs a drop. But what about the problems you're gonna have when it does get dropped?

But I commend the DIY outlook. :)

Nice work for a home-fab job!!! I especially like the front lip.

I do have to agree though, that from a purely "taste" perspective... the white stripes look like crap.

In all... MUCH better than most people can do on their own, and it looks like you did a heck of a good job on it! props....

Nice ride. IMHO the stripes kinda detract from the really nice body work you did. Overall thumbs up.

I don't personally like the striping or the type of wing you've got, but the fact that you did it yourself deserves props alone. Nice work.
