Hey guys havent talk too you all for awhile but just have been so busy with work. I want to wish you all a happy thanksgiving. I had to raise the G. The coilovers are great but I was scraping every where. I donot know how those guys with there G so low drive. Ryan I hope your car is fix after having to wait for it so long. Hey biatch hope you are doing well. Hope to make a trip up next year or maybe you can come down. Later.

lol Pete i think for that reason the Nismo bumper is the most popular front on the market

or they just dont care about looking good and just about being low and having their -6 degrees of camber calling this ---> /___\ flush

Everything in moderation I guess. Those Oni cambered cars are just plain stupid looking.

it just all depends on what you're willing to deal with for the look that you're trying achieve. Roads in the Richmond area are crappy as you have seen Pepper, not all of them but enough that i can't see myself getting stuck or having to take various detours to avoid certain roads.

I have a few roads I just don't go on because of their condition. My biggest challenge/obstacle here is where the center of the road is higher than where your wheels travel. Granted its not for everyone at all. You got to be able to shrug off the sound of your car hitting the ground and scraping pretty much anywhere you pull in or out of. But it's like my wife says to me " why is your car this low?!? You can't go anywhere!!! ". I reply " it's like when you wear high heels that hurt your feet... You know it's not comfortable but you do it anyways cuz it looks good!".
