Default JDM Converted, 1.5 inch drop

Still on the lookout...

I wanted to know what a JDM converted R would look like at stock height vs. dropped 1.5 inches... look that much better?

Try the Appearance/Cosmetic forum.

All JDM front end Integras look similar, so you'd get better results there.

I rarely scrape and mine is pretty low. But if you count cones I scrape all the time

from the side view pics (before and after) the drop is very noticeable and is . you should post the side view and wheel gap pics.

Did you meausre the height if the car before and after the drop? The Spoon springs look like the drop the ITR more than "one inch." I still love the drop though. It looks perfect to me.
