dropped her rear and fixed her as* crack

just like the title says...
both "mods" done ghetto-fab style.

i cut one-half coil more from my rear. in the before pics, i had already cut one-quarter of a coil. so in the after pics i have 3/4 of a coil cut total.

i also fixed the gap in my rear bumper, using a L-shaped bracket and screwing it into my frame ( ) on the lower part of the trunk opening.

HERE are the before pics and these are the after...









i'm getting the SPC/eibach camber kit tomorrow...

gotta see darin ASAP!!!

Looks great!!

The reason it sags, is because there is no frame or clip in the center, like the factory has.

I just took a 4"x1" piece of ABS and a 1/2" thick piece foam and screwed it into the clip mount, to resolve mine at install.

Gotta love Impul!!!

that pic definitely swayed my indecision towards getting the FI exhaust!!!
i never knew how good it looked with the impul rear... not too aggressive yet classy.
