Thanks for the civil reply, jinetix ... I figured you'd say mind your own business. But I really didn't mean any disrespect, and apparently that came through.

I've looked at the pix again, BTW, and I have to admit it looks sharp.

How much ground clearance do you have? Just wondering, thats the amount of drop I was looking into, looks HOT!!! Have any trouble with going over speed bumps or high sloped driveways?

kloh7: I have no trouble going over the speed bumps in my neighborhood or at school.. I just go by them a bit slow just in case it will hit.. no need to drive sideways. Going over those high sloped driveways, you'll have to go in at a good angle so you wont touch.
