Rebel, parking in front of a no parking sign.

JKJK, I'd say that is looking pretty good. (I'd say it's the wheels though, BBS makes almost any car look good

).

One of those garages is mine, I'm allowed to park there :p

Looks totally sick.

I wouldn't call it ugly at all. Your mod list is exactly as it should be.

Finish up those handling mods and get some power mods!

I had to pull the tires back off so that I can deal with some rubbing issues. I have Noltec camber plates for the rear, and DMS camber plates for the front that I'm waiting to install. I also have to roll the fenders. In a few weeks I'll have the suspension all set up and I'll re-install the BBS' and throw some tire shine on

Not yet, It won't get here until later on this week

I really need to lower the front another 1/2 inch.

Oh, and with two bikes on roof racks they stay well attached while driving many many miles of curvy mountain roads with no issues

It looks cool, but from a handling standpoint, you really need to raise the ride height. You must be very near the end of the strut's travel. Additionally you are in the bad part of the camber curve.

I don't see the point of all those fancy suspension parts if you're just going to cruise around on the bump stops.

The plan is to go with the whiteline roll center adjusters, at least to conpensate for the car being so low. Thanks for the input.

And please do not lower the front only. It will just ruin your handling. Your fenders are cut that way, the car is not actually higher in the front.

Wait... What are you talking about?

Doing this will ruin your handling. Too many guys on NASIOC lower the front more than the rear, honestly make the car look stupid in my opinion, and make their car handle terrible in the process.
