Exact Motorsports sells 1 inch A arm lowering blocks for the front. If you still have an inch drop left in the rear, these blocks should do the trick.

Several NorCal members have been using these blocks for over a year now. These blocks also allow a one inch drop without adding additional camber.

I've been researching about these to try to make my own. I had no idea they were being sold. Any links? How much do they go for?

They're a CL vendor, so give Sandy a call for pricing.

We did the prototyping on my car and they have been road testing them on several local member cars for a while now. No problems and with the supplied longer grade 12 bolts, the design is pretty beefy.

If the price is right, I am sold on these things. I was going to wait until I got a nice set of wheels but I think I should practice driving an even lower car before getting a lip or some wheels. Thanks.

My wedding is coming up in August. In Colorado ( fiance lives there ). So i was out of town that weekend. Really busy lately. I really want to do this but my front rubs on some bumps and this might make it worst...... dont you think?
