Holly crap Linden, I get so tired of hearing some of these guys calling that out on this board because someones car doesn't have rolled fenders and "poke." It was a perfect moment to capture the opportunity to say it in jest, cause I know there are some that must have at least 30% of their posts saying those very words.

ok... btt

I'm pretty sure Woady is being sarcastic... he should have posted an appropriate smiley face just to make sure people read it right,


"needs spacers and a drop" lol, cracked me up when I read it, it's funny



Aside from the personal satisfaction of doing the work on your car yourself, I gotta say damn, Goblin must be saving a fortune just installing this thing himself, don't even wanna guess how much a bodyshop would charge for labour like this, mad props!

ahahah Lyndon. I put the stock suspension / old sevas wheels on while the car is being worked on just so any of the good components cant get damaged. He is just giving me a hard time.

why did you have to cut that off.

Could you just attach the kit to the car?

What are you attaching the kit to underneath in the wheel well?

The reason the quarters needed to be trimmed is for suspension travel at lowered heights... If I were to have not cleranced the quarter I will be limited at what ride height I would be able to do before the tire would contact the oem quarter.

To answer you question yes you could just attach the kit to the car, but it would limit you on stance, suspension travel, and rubbing issues.

I C

now how are you going to finish off the wheel well?
Since you cut away the quarter, what are you going to do to attach the wheel well of the kit to what use to be the wheel well of the car?

I know he was joking, that's why I didn't direct my comments at him, but more general about others on the site that find it necessary to post those same comments time and time again as if everyone on this site wants to be "hella flush."
