Going Down?

[itsmycookie]

day pix.

i like this angle, too bad it isn;t perfectly focused

other way

its close

close up of the front

note to self never go into the golf course parking area again. i hit the ground like 20 times with the uneven surface

 

[stealthy]

how u think. people that have ridden in my car tell me that bumps that i hit and seem like terrible bumps they don;t even notice in their cars. um... i lost my muffler, my resonater is flat on the bottom ( its now about 1 1/2 inches off the ground) my tow hooks are all scrapped up, so basically its awesome. oh yeah and on bridges i go airborn.

maybe its just me but i find this rediculously retarded.....why would you want to go through all of that just to be low? buy a go cart? i mean i typically laugh my ass off at the people i see driving around bouncing all over the place, the driver being tossed around like he's in a rodeo, and car coming off of the ground because of a bump......i mean thats the definition of safe right? i see no point in sacrificing ride quality and your own safety for something so little as the appearance and the reactions people get on the internet. maybe you should think of the long term effect this has on the complete car, if you thought about it, you might think of more than a few things that this will effect. my car is tastefully dumped, and i have managed to retain about 85% of the stock ride quality of a stock integra (which is already by far better than a stock civic ride quality).

sure, it looks great. dont think im picking you out of everyone to be a d**k to, or act as your father.

i would agree if i did do it for that reason, but i don;t. i have my car set up how i like it. i don;t mind slowing down for bumps or going over tracks at an angle its just something i do. and coming off the ground for instance isn;t because the car is so low, its because the suspension doesn;t travel as far as well as the springs being stiffer. as far as safety goes i drive according to how the car is set up. me going through all this trouble to be low is just anyone going through trouble to make a civic fast. why not just buy a fast car.

the ctr is for the rear. the rs is for the front. i;m keeping the lips painted satin black to match the moldings and i don;t think a ctr front lip would look very good. they work better when painted to match.

good choice on front lip....a little more unique than every other lip out there.

pics on grass = lame

holy crap dude.....that's freakin' nuts. I give that rs style lip about 3 days before it gets ripped off on the train tracks you're going over. I have to admit, it looks really cool, but it's certainly not something I would do to any car I own.

 

[Zenray]

damn thats low but i like, driving down the road has gotta be quite the adventure

i dont go over train tracks. haven;t for months. i hope it lasts more than 3 days. the car is goin up up and away back to stock height so i can drive it in the winter

i can;t go over speed bumps, the body of the car is too low. ended up walkin like 3 blocks to a party cause the bastard has a lot of speed bumps in the area.

it would look a lot lower then. with the black trim it doesn;t look like its that low even though the lift points are about 3 inches off the ground.

photoshop on the way...
