omg what did you do... oh Im glad you just photochop this psshhh oh wait its on coils?! Who does such a thing- that's blasphemy and so absurd-lmao-some people are hating. Dont knock the man if he can roll dumped on coils. Other than spacers your drop is on point.

What are your plans for this project? VIP or Hellaflush or that dirty lil word dub jk

I got my LS stanced similar...all kinds of peeps were staring on the freeway today. Looks good to me and probably rides good on adjustable coils. Did you make a hole for your UCA and relocate the wiring harness?....Again, it looks dope.

love your ride height, but not really feeling the design of the wheels. You should carry around a block of wood in your trunk.. it comes in handy

Yes sir.. It was the cleanest EF I had ever seen.. it was rolling on fully reconditioned BBS RM 15x8 + 14.. I sold the wheels seperatly from the car and made a pretty good amount of the both of them.. I really do miss the car though.. but I'll have something just as clean here real soon

It is really funny.. I've never seen people say a car was too low on here before.. Its cool though I dont mind the feedback.

Thanks man.. My car, my parts, my money.. I'll lower it as much as I want.. but I'm always open to peoples opinion.. I take no offense to them. Honestly I really want to find a decent aristo swap and get this thing going fast. full paint job and wald lip kit. I'm not into to DUB at all! leave dub the caprice's and cadillacs and what not.. Ha!

I have people on the side of the road stop what they are doing to stare at my car.. Ha! havent had my UCA hit yet. it rides really good for how low it is. I'll be lookinbg into relocating the harness.

I'm liking where this headed! Ha.. My EF was on HEllaflush already.. might as well get the GS on there also.

they look a lot better when they are all polished up and cleaned.. the car is dirty in the pics


Honestly.. I only bought these wheels as temporary wheels.. I agree a nicer set would really set the car off.. But I get compliments on them now and am content with them for a bit. Thanks for the compliment man! And I've already got the block of wood.. my buddy told me about that too!

I'd be surprised if those fenders lasted a year without incident on coilovers. I remember driving the lex that low on coilovers and going up the driveway at an angle...fenders didn't like that too much

that's a nice ride height; love the fact that it's on coils and not bags too
if wheels were being tucked i'd say it was too low
