That might be a little too low for my liking but I love the wheels and I assume front bumper and side skirts if that's what he did amoung numerous other things. Dude did a great job on that car if you ask me. Very clean.

Itasha Coupe
Kuruma front bumper and ings+1 style sides. Wheels are WORK Meister S3's, most likely in 19's with low offsets. His car is an 03-05 model with OEM 06-07 projectors.

I don't know the owner of the car, but I would assume he's dropped on coils... something that would allow him to go that low. Either Stances, Form and Functions, or something similar to those. Unless he's dropped on low springs with a rear spring mount mod, like how Chris (username iseechriss) had his car before he got Tein Basics.

Thats a nice look. Super clean. Yeah I swapped with a friend a while back who has a civic lowered prob 2" on coilovers, nothing can perpare your for the first bump you hit in a car that low with a hard suspension. You WILL think you broke it lol. And be prepared for a harsh ride. I personally like to feel every detail of the road im riding but some really dont and end up dissapointed.

Add in stretched tires and it sounds like your wheel just got folded in half and feels like your spleen shattered.

Lol indeed it does, luckily there was some give in his tires. But it being someone elses car makes it even worse. I remember going about 70 and hitting a transition from the road onto a bridge. Never knew it was there when i drove my car but in his car sounded like I snapped welds in the frame haha.
