I know... well we do have a long driveway... from the street to my garage, i have about 6 car lengths. towards the garage, it splits into 2 cars wide, so you could park 7-8 cars in the driveway, then another 2 in the garage. but still, $25K to $50K is alot.

I think we start the project next month.

What materials will be used?? Brick inlayed in cement, stamped and dyed cement, cement with stone pressed top? There are so many designs. Sounds like alot of work. The cost of excavation and removal of old drivay is $$ alone.

Troy... I have no idea what my parents want to do. I believe they want to use bricks/stone.

I ordered the coilovers. Ill try to get a feel for them next week with Robs car.

Where is a good place to get fenders rolled, just incase I crank these down pretty low?

Mach III does fender rolling.

Thats something I'm gonna have to get done when i get wheels. It's a kind of scary thing to get done cuz I have heard of so many shops cracking the paint. I guess its a hit or miss type thing.

As long as its heated up there should not really be an issue. Just need the right tool and not a pipe... I cant trust a hit or miss thing. I dont feel like repainting the fenders if the **** cracks..

I've got mine lowered on Basics (and 19s +24/+22) with a one-finger gap (no fender roll) and have no problems with rubbing. I think you'll be okay unless you have rims with an super-aggressive offset and/or carry a lot of people in your car.
