That car belongs to a very very good friend of ours that isnt really into the euro scene. I couldnt convince him on a brushed finish or anything extreme.

I am still trying to convince him on the lowering.

Its been done. Look at the gallery for member WheelzPlus . His car was also lowered.

Thanks, I looked at it. Looks good, but do guys think it will make the ride bad? You know rough. I guess his turning radious went to shit!

From what the owner of that car told me, it did not rub. However, you will definently lose a good amount of ride quality and driveability due to those extremely thin side walls. When i say driveability, I just mean that you have to be extra cautious and focused to pot holes and road hazards.
