lol i know a few of these guys are joking, is this your daily driver? how are the roads around where you live? what size wheels and tires do you have? Do the cops around your area enforce the ride height regulations?

typically 1.5 inch drop is still daily drive-able, youll have the occasional scrape, but 1.5 looks good and is practical.
but, being practical would be leaving it stock height.
So to answer your question, No 3 inches isnt too much.

Re: (fadedgsr)
my car is dumped to about 3 inches (finger tip to knuckle of my middle finger).
Being dropped is nice to see the looks at peoples faces when you go do an oil change or other lil jobs at shops when you don't feel like doing it.
Sucks though, as i went all other looking for a shop that could lift my car to install new tires.
Just make sure you do it right!
