so the votes are in,, plus i drove all the way to work and tried to drive aggressive over every dip and didn't scrape once so it will deff get a .5 inch drop all the way around and i will go from there.

btw -camber = lots of tires = $$$ when you drive a lot.

thanks for the comments, and i try to keep it clean as much as possible.

new pix look great with the T2i......I have a tripod so let me know if yall do meet up for a mini meet/shoot.....

i'm in, and i imagine Jay would be as well. with the leaves turning, now would be a good time to find a spot on the river for backdrop. i have some ideas, but it would be down my way...get my new camera this weekend, so i'll be wanting to try it out soon.

so does anyone know of some spots in a relatively close by place where we could all park to get some group shots??

thanks leroy, and that tripod would come in handy, can you lower it down real low? what are its heights??

Didn't realize the front and rear pull. I wish there is someone who can do that type of job in Hawaii without paying for an arm and two legs!

if you want the car to look "clean" i would remove the V8 badge in the C-pillar, that **** looks tacky as ****.

I don't like your wheels but the car still looks great.

Not too shabby.

It wasn't actually a pull. It's a metal widebody from cutting the stock body along w/ welding new sheetmetal in.
