These are the pics right after I cut out the front and rear coils. I put the bags in after i took theses pics and will post pics today or tomorrow with the new stance. Thinking of changng the rims what do you think? Eric

good job, it looks good. If it were mine i'd leave the rims and go with a lower profile tire, I don't mind the 'ol slots.

*lakeroadster* · 10-16-2010, 10:27 AM

Looks good! I'd keep the slots and get some bigger diameter rubber for the rear. Slots are old school, and so are "Big and Littles"

**N2TRUX** · 10-16-2010, 11:18 AM

The drop looks awesome. Get it in one solid color of primer, and leave those slots alone.

1LoC10 · 10-16-2010, 11:27 AM

you cut the rear coils too?

*Shane* · 10-16-2010, 01:05 PM

polish the slots and find some cheap center caps ... new tires will do wonders ... and as Ken said, get it all one color ... I prefer light gray if its gonna stay in primer but that's a personal preference.

(i got one in gray primer

)

steppside69 · 10-16-2010, 02:21 PM

here are the latest pics tried to get some primer on the bare steel, and make it look more presentable

I put the 2600# dominators all the way around, like the stance of the rear aired out but the front is way to high for my taste now(aired out)
I never knew how addicting it would be to get lower

I am looking for some drop spindals to get the front end lower without to much modifacation. I need to cut out the bump stops and can gain alittle there for now. Eric
