FINALLY! LuckyG dropped his G!

Well, after watching them collect dust in my friends garage for almost 4 months, a friend of mine took my car to his shop and threw them on for free. Good pics in the morning. I detailed the car again today, but it was too dark to take pics by the time I was done. Here's a quick set of teasers though







Sorry about the quality of the teasers, they're phone pics. Evidently my Blackberry isn't quite the pic-machine haha.

Digi-SLR pics in the morning.

I really do need to grab some clear corners. I keep putting it off every time I have some extra cash laying around, and I don't know why, they're only like $35 if I remember right.

Time to paint the sills/valences! It makes such a dramatic difference.

I agree to the look needing wheels to be complete, but I myself don't necessarily NEED wheels right now. I'm content with it for a bit.

Wasn't a shop that put them on actually. A buddy of mine goes to Ranken tech school and it was their last day of steering and suspension. He knew the suspension had been sitting there collecting dust (I haven't had access to a garage in months) so he volunteered to put them on for me since he had access to a lift that day. The only thing he charged me was lunch.

I'm very happy with the drop for the price and the ride comfort. It's definitely not the STIFFEST drop in the world, but I think with a set of stiffer sway bars and lower profile tires, it will be the perfect compromise between handling and daily driven comfort.

PS--JML Audio only does just that, Audio. They don't really mess with much else. They dabble in custom interiors and they will outsource a tint guy, but they're really audio and fabrication specialists.
