Man, its all coming together nicely. Honestly, it looks bad *** and im jealous. You could do to drop the rear about another 1 inch and another 1/2 in the front though 
It would then be perfect in my opinion then 
BTW, I own page 15 homos

BigJoeD,
when we did those photos, we were under a tight schedule. There was no gas in the tank when the photos were shot and we are still playing with the ride height anyways.
Here's a shot of just what you asked for. Less than zero finger gap front and rear. We really can't leave it this low for every day use, until Daizen gets the front and rear camber kits released. These tires just cost too much to replace. We do have a specific reason for having the car this low for now, and I will make a Special announcement on it soon.
Let me know what you think.

Your car was definitely an inspiration for how I wanted my car to look.
My husband is looking into Supra TT brakes, but we need to see if it will clear. It's not a priority for me right now, but your input has made me realize that big brakes will complete the tire/wheel package.
But I can live with this for now.

Rear Emblems: Yay or Nay ?
Recent input I got from the NorCal locals was to remove the rear emblems (except the "L") from the back for a cleaner look.
My feedback? I agree.
What does everyone else think? Please consider what you think is the right LOOK for my style of car, color , etc.
My husband is looking for the dental floss so please respond soon !
