Ill get some pics of the side of the car later. Real happy with the drop besides scraping easier now lol.

Also found out while the car was in the shop that my rear shock and my front rotors/pads are shot. So I just dropped it back off at the shop to get everything replaced.


And of course hes gonna fix that scratch. He's having his paint guy look at it today. Still probably gonna look like a shitty touch up though.

Heres some crappy phone pics for the time being, my driveway is really uneven and the suspension isnt totally settled yet though.

If the rear doesnt settle anymore in the next week or so i'll probably do it.

My exhaust is starting to melt my bumper on the right side a little Since its a bit too high

Badass looking G Calamity!!! I have the same exhaust... you have to take it to a shop so they can adjust the tips for you!!

I wrote a whole review on the M2 and its in the exhaust section.

My guy just headed up the pipe behind the tips and bent them in the right place so they didn't touch the bumper. Good thing he made them even

He told me he can't adjust the exhaust at all since its all stainless steel... he suggested cutting my bumper around the exhaust LOL. Looks like i'll be taking it somewhere else since this guy doesnt seem to know what hes doing all that well

The guy that installed my Cat Back said the same thing, and he do know what he's doing - when I get mine painted, I'll have my BodyGuy do the cutting...

Someone else told me he'd be able to cut a small piece of out the exhaust and re-weld it, and that would knock it into place. So i'm not sure what I should do. In the meantime I guess my bumper will continue to melt...

He could just heat up the metal piping behind the tips and adjust them accordingly... It's not a hard concept... -____-

Definitely take the exhaust to another guy...

I told him to do that, and he said since its solid stainless steel it CANNOT be physically bent. Don't think thats necessarily correct though.
