Im pretty happy overall. Also this is before lowering the car. The Ride height is Completely Unchanged.

YAYYY Happy mod. Can't wait till i get the new struts and springs on.

Gonna look sick when you get it lowered. I think you should leave the pink pinstriping and then paint the center caps the same color pink!

[Advancedynamix]

Or pink pinstripe on the lip of the wheel, time attack style. Looks good!

[FestYboy]

one spoke pink FTW!

[Prafeston]

I like the previous two statements!

[jesteratc]

Everybody seams to like the pink.

[pointA2B]

looks good............maybe some tire shine?

[Prafeston]

Everybody seams to like the pink.

I'm a fan of the more bright fuscia pink, but I do love the Teal/Pink combo on the Festy. Would hate to see the pinstriping go.

Overall the height difference isn't huge. But what is huge is the way it feels. I need to have the tires balanced and Suspension aligned. But other than that this is what i have to say.

When i was going from lets say 2nd to 3rd before the car would lunge forward then back in between shifts because the struts were so worn. No it barely does it. When i go over a bump its a little bit rougher, as in more firm. But then there's no wobbles. Like the bump happens then its gone. Where as before it would still hit the bump hard, but then bounce while it reverberated through the rest of the car.

Overall its not a ton lower. Ive got some dimensions before and after but the front is lower, but not so much the back.


But all in all im quite pleased.

[jesteratc]

Heres some of those Dimension Pics i was mentioning.

Before in the Front


After


it is deffinately dropped about 1.5" in the front. But the backs remain unchanged. Perhaps after they sit for a week or so they will lower a bit more. But its doubtfull. Still im very pleased with it.
