Front left has a 3 finger gap, whereas the front right has 3 1/2-4 fingers Wondering if anyone had this issue, camber is FL -1.2 / FR -0.9 if that makes any difference.



One of the springs may be more compressed than the other. It theoretically should work it's way out as you drive your car and both sides will even out, but the best option is to just lift the car and drop it back down, maybe a couple of times. If that doesn't work, then you might have a loose bolt or something else that you need to look for.

Took your recommendation and I'm liking it a lot more thanks!

Tried doing this method and checked for any loose bolts, but the right side still sits about half a finger higher than the left side.. Guess I'll be seeing coilovers in the near future

Looks like my buddy Trentor's car before he covered it with sponsor stickers. One of my favorite stickers was "Death before Prius" Lol....

It's my old G but I miss her, it seemed more raw compared to my 08' and both were 6MT. Lowered on Eibach Pro. I did put polly spring bushings in the rear springs to level out the car perfectly.

LOVE the wheels, splitter and black grill.

Not a fan of the painted vent shades, blacked out headlights or decals.

Over all a really sick look.

Thanks...I know the painted window visors aren't for everyone. I'm going for the oldskool VIP look. The headlights look tinted, but only the housings are painted black. I was thinking about going back to OEM chrome + retrofits. We'll see.
Decals were placed in lower windshield because it shows depth to hood with no wipers

Roll the back fenders and drop it an inch. You'll be fine.
