I knew it was lowered, but I didn't want to be wrong. LOL

Ya for sure you can tell its been lowered compared to his old sig from yesterday!

It honestly made a big difference. Did you change your shocks/struts too?

Edit:

And I guess the LCI-type smoked tail lights will be the NEXT mod.

Haven't changed the shocks yet, the stock ones have some miles on em and can;t spend too much until after the closing of the new house
Yes, the smoked LED tails will be one of the next mods, I also have the Euro stickers yet to install thanks to Phi
Then after that time to sell the 172's and get some 20's me thinks

Why Marc? I like them, but I am leaning more towards a wheel with a lip, I think it would look better as my car is setuo now.

I have never really liked wheels with a lip...I like the more subtle look I guess.

I like the subtle look too, but silver wheels and silver car just looks a little too monochrome for my tastes, I need some gunmetal or gloss black wheels to add some contrast. Then some bright yellow caliper paint

Why don't you powder-coat your 172's black or gunmetal? That would look really sick with the silver and yellow calipers...
