I was concerned about that with the NF's. I definitely want the car noticeably lower but I don't want to be slammed, it looks sick don't get me wrong, but I bought this car to have a nice dependable daily driver. I just can't help it though, I can never leave my damn cars alone lol. The DF's look a little too low imo. I know there are other brands of springs, these were just the ones I happen to be considering.

I saw that picture when I was looking for some IS wheels. I'm still torn, I do like the black on silver though. I was thinking about powder coating them black and spraying the calipers red but I don't want to spend the money on it
