Here is my car with the suspension installed, the pictures really do not do justice... I may cut the springs to get a bit of a lower drop but haven't decided yet.

20" Makeveli wheels
ACS replica kit
H&R race springs

Looks great ... are you riding on sport pkg shocks? are those rims 20x9 front and 20x10 backs? What tire size are you running on? Are the rims rubbing on bumps?

Looking good!

but IMHO the painting job for the kit is pretty bad.. :thumbsdown: I would bring it back to the paintshop and request for a re-paint for the kit if it's my car..

Is it just me or am i the only one seeing that nothing is wrong with the current paint job on the kit.

I think it looks awesome, but I think I have to agree with soc_fans, at least from the pictures. The kit looks like it's more of an off-white/eggshell rather than alpine white. I do love the look of the kit and wheels though, it's bad ass.

Actually I'd like to ask why he doesn't think it looks good?
BTW the complete bumpers were painted with the kit. It actually matches 100%. But it's okay...

I'm loving the white on black combo!

I can't really tell the paint difference, if any, so if you think it matches perfectly then cool! Congrats!
