I'm very happy with the results. Precisely what I wanted. A very subtle, even drop that closed up my wheel gap

looks better but needs more drop in the front! hehe

 

I think this looks fantastic! Where did you get the parts? How much? Did you install it or have it installed? This is exactly what I want to do on my 2005 sedan. Any details would be appreciated.

 

Looks OK but I agree with elayman. It looks 10 times better than it did for sure. What's important though is that you like it so congrats.

 

you should restore your headlights

 

I got the G springs from a friend locally (part of the forums) for next to nothing. I bought him lunch for them, haha. Then I picked up the Z springs for $50. I did 80% of the install myself. I removed the front struts myself and had a local tire shop put the Z springs on my struts for a mere $40. They did it in about 20 minutes... it saved me a lot of hassle and time. I did the coupe springs in the rear on my own. The rears are a piece of cake!

I was only looking to close the wheel gap... It looked "monster truck" like before.. and I wanted to give it a sportier look. Trust me, I'd love to put it on some S-techs, but I drive roughly 25-30k miles a year at the moment... and do lots of driving cross-country... I wanted it to be comfortable

Gee, thanks for the advice. I didn't notice!

I've got another project in the works to work on my "color". This includes blacking out my chrome door handles, trim, grill, and the headlights. I've tried everything with them, and so have others. A lot of it in on the inside... so when I crack 'em open to paint the housing, I'll wet sand them on both sides.

 

looks a lot better good job !!

 

Looks great, I love my Z/G setup.

 

wetsanding the inside was a bad idea. I did mine and it seems the inside had a film of some sort and made the plastic even worse and a ton of work. I ended up buying ebay headlights because it was so bad.....

 

^ ^ ^

Sounds like I should listen to you and just try to get a hold of another set and modify those :-/

 

in the pictures it seems like you have minimal build up. Have you tried wetsanding the outside then applying polish?

 

I've tried all sorts of polishes, buffers, etc... but I haven't tackled the wetsanding on outside only yet. I'll have to give it a try!

 

Yeah night and day with wet sanding! 3M makes a great kit you can it on the net or any auto parts store. Has an attachment for a drill. Worth the 15-20! then polish it and it should look new.

 

Looking good on the drop

 

Looks nice
