Kind of a long read, but after reading this, I'm not nearly as interested in the Cinna IS.

Sounds like shit my dad would've done on his Chevelles 30+ years ago...lol.

First he heated a set of springs, then replaced them with a new set of cut springs, then cut them again, then removed then entirely, then finally had some coilovers made for the front. Meanwhile fenders were trimmed, the car was high centered at one point judging by some damage shown in a photo and there's a pic showing a pretty scraped up oil pan. And then there's some weird chopping up of the front valace to delete the front bumper. Oh, and the engine is lifted using washers.

The car looks pretty, but that's because it's not being built to be drive. Fuckin parkhard mentality. I'd have a good years worth of work to repair the teenage damage that's been done.

It's sad to read though that thread. Peoe pretty much tell him to go do some stupid shit, and then he goes and does it. Meanwhile that pretty car slides closer and closer to being a parts car.

That's too bad. Looked like a nice car at one point.

When I was a teenager, everyone wanted to make cars fast.

Here's the photo highlights for you lazy asses that didn't read through the Stanceworks thread:

Wow. Can't say I'm surprised. Fucking dumbass kids, ruining what was once a nice car.

Same here. And we went on long drives on twisty roads. We only lowered our cars to make them handle better.

Just finished that thread. Not even going to comment what I really think.

And that's why that 535i bronzit is starting to look better and better. Sure it's got an old man color, old man seats. But, it also has H&R springs, Billies, ST sways and a pretty nice set of wheels. It has less miles and will come with an LSD.

When did you start doing that? New Years Resolution?
