I'd leave it as is, drop is tasteful and functional. And the car has a slight rake to it as it is now, which makes it look a little aggressive.

And yeah driving a couple days won't hurt it.

Thanks haha. It's my parents, not technically mine, I just live there. lol
One of the few things good about Alabama, LOTS of open road. I live in the country, but not to the point of dirt roads, it's well-paved from my house into town, so I like it. :D

The picture was taken from knee-high level, so you can't tell in the pic, but at eye level you can tell that the front is tucking roughly 2 cm of the tire, and the rear is right there at the top where you can see the very edge of the tread....which just annoys me because it looks uneven. (-__-)

I'm going to try to get it where I want it tomorrow after school. Hopefully lowering it a half or 3 quarters of an inch will give me the perfect look. It just doesn't feel...completely finished....yet. If that makes sense. Still some tweaking to do.


Btw, Vlad how much higher is your rear fender measurement than your front?

You're like right on the border line of boat look, but not quite there. (imo anyways)
That's what I want. lol I just don't like the way the front points down a tiny bit, and the front tires tuck, but the rears don't. It's just, asymmetrical. lol

I'll take a pic tomorrow if I can get it to what I'm wanting, and I'll see what you guys think. Nothing drastic, just that last detail, I guess you'd say.
I want a front lip. :sad:

Oh yeah, after looking at your pics, Kyle's pics, hirichard's, and sketch's pics, that rear end is definitely coming down tomorrow. lol
