you should check into that light metallic blue that rotora offers for special order.. that'd look really sweet w/ your color setup.. not sure about red..

Funny you bring that up... I have been looking into these actually in a 6 pot front and 4 pot rear... Rotora had a darker metallic last year but have moved to this lighter color... I really like the lighter color as well but just have not come to grips with it co-ordinating well... It is hard for me to picture it but that is the way I am leaning

Yes, springs are installed in those pics. That is only after one day though, the springs have settled some since those were taken.

Yes, I went with Epelir GT springs. I did not want to go overly agressive with the drop since this is my daily driver and I have the KurumaZ front bumper on now. I do not want to screw up the lip nor did I want to have problems w/ speed bumps or my driveway

Here are a cpl more recent pics, you can see she dropped a bit more but not too much, which I like






I would not want the front lip any lower than it is here in this pic, any lower and I would have problems in my driveway... If it was just a show car and not my daily driver I might go lower but she has 54K miles on her and I love to drive her hard
