Hey All,

Im new to e30zone.....I was rushed for time so I took some really quick pics of the new shoes...

I think I need to lower the rear by another inch and she'll sit nicely.

Rims: 16x8 ET15 Sportmax 501
Tires: Nexen N3000 215-40-16

Let me know what you think.

Before....

Now....

I need to lower 'er more....

Probably lower 1in in the Fr and 1.5" in the rear to get her with this stance (PS enhanced);

I wish she was this low...

Welcome to the Zone :wave:

Love the car, the wheels look superb, polished rims, black centres always do look good (i am a little biased tho) :D

Thanks for the compliments all! :D

In the beginning I always wanted to do a plastic bumper conversion but the chromies are starting to grow on me.

I have an earlier IS airdam to colour match and fit but as far as asthetics go, that's it for now as I gather parts for a 2.7T build for winter. :twisted:

chrome looks to be in good nick for the age, welcome!

Not too sure on all the yellow lights up front though, do you have certain regulations to meet or are you an amber devient?

I'm an "amber devient" - tinting those are on the mod list.
