C'mon PTL don't do that, there will always be haters for anything new or things that are out of the norm.
And bha7176, not sure if you've visited California, but I almost always see a car lowered to where the tire or even the wheel is tucked under the fender every day. Even the E36 has the rear tire almost tucked at stock height. And the lowered cars I see are not always old integras or civics, I've seen them on a lot of MBs, BMWs, Volkswagens, etc. Given it's a totally different car, visit more track inspired enthusiast car forums like the M3forums and look at how low those guys run their E46 M3s, especially on track days. I can see where you're coming from but I like it when I see cars modded differently but done well, seeing the same mods all the time can get a tad boring. Not saying I would ever do that, but it's nice eye candy. It's like would I ever date a stripper... nope, good to look at... yep (not that I'm comparing to your car to a stripper or anything PTL
).

Haha bad metahpor (or was it simile) on my part . I meant to add DIRTY stripper, not sure if that would make a difference for you Melvin or Simon though

Once the word "stripper" was involved, I don't think I remember what this thread was supposed to be about.. something about "stretching, poking, and strippers."

i have no idea where this came from but honestly im sick of people like you with this attitude on the forums.
Good luck with your mods guys, im going elsewhere for modding ideas.
You want to see pictures? Youll have to hunt around the internet to find them on the other forums

Poked and stretched look. 
j/k
Can't wait to see the pics. 
These teasers are killing me. 
Would love to do this setup for my 5. But I already had to repair my wheels 3 times already. Damn NY roads.

Yeah, it was pretty great! I was busy like hell, but it was a pleasant trip.
And I found those side markers I had shown you. Should be arriving any day now.
Since PTL might not come back, maybe we should continue the stripper talk. I like strippers.
