MrMark, I saw your SC430 at an auto show in the last year and couldn't stop admiring it. At the same time, I noticed that the trunk wasn't quite aligned to the rear bumper. I am assuming that's from all the custom work that's been done.

While I was staring at it at the show I couldn't help but wonder how the ride quality is on an SC430 that's modified in so many ways. Is this a car that could still be used for daily driving or it is only a show car now? My SC430 is entirely stock and it almost feels too low for daily driving, I can't imagine how your SC430 would do on regular roads in the area. Let us know. Awesome work!

Thanks Jason.....the rear bumper needs to be aligned. It's off due to us taking it on and off so many times....never enough time to fix everything.

Ride quality is still pretty good. My SC is low, but I've driven it around a lot, but I'm used to driving low cars so I don't find it hard to drive. Would I drive it everyday? Hell yah.....if the weather is nice !!!!

Thanks! The kit is from Imex Tuning in Europe. We highly modified it and widened it up. The color is the Pearl Red from the LFA.
