Photoshop help....

I was wonder if someone could PHOTOSHOP this for me. I'm thinking about dropping it a few inches 2.5/4 or 3/5 . Some days I want to drop it and other days I think it would be nuts. what do you guys think? Drop or stock ?

Thanks
John

I'm kinda partial to dropping them a bit, but yours really looks nice as is. What are the specs on the wheels and tires you're running? Size, backspacing, width, etc. Thanks.

BUt seriously.......... 3.5"x6" drop would look perfect with your wheel/tire combo. This pic is from Early Classic's web site.
