    back on topic...



    I got stuff!



    The install was pretty smooth and all the parts were works of art. Very pleased with quality and all that.
    I did struggle to get the first kidney thing to line up with the adapter, but after I figured out how the rest went quick.

    the resultant poke:







    I have rolled my fenders, but just slightly. However, the rears are rubbing bad and I am going to have to work those out a bit more.


    with or without caps???

            thats because they are the draft42 design, not the adaptec ones.




            The studs are a nice bonus to this set up too.

                    Spacers on is way classier. Let us know how the rubbing in the back works out.

                      Looks great dude. Mine are on their way so my car will be literally identical to yours but with 2mm more poke. I'll see what I need to do as far as rolling and (hopefully not) pulling goes. I want to drop the front even more so I'll have to order the skid plate I've been putting off.

                              Thanks! I wish I could get the front lower, it looks like my only option is an entire new suspension set up :(
