Thanks a lot, i had a short ram before, but decided to go with the stock air box, looks cleaner as a whole. The reason the engine bay is dirty cuz of all the salt/dirt/rain

Raise it up some, you're probably hurting the handling by having it that low.

Drove lower than this for almost a year, and my suspension is just fine, thanks for the concern though.

why would you want to lower it more? so you can scrape everytime you go over a speedbump or driveway?

I think EG's look tight dumped. I wanna see some pics of it lower.....But we'll see how long those shocks last. Props on the car so far.

Well for one, i don't go over speedbumps as it is, i park somewhere where i won't have to go over any and walk the rest of the way. You may think i am psycho, but to me it's worth having to do a 10 second longer walk and have my car so low. As far as driveways, i never really scrape. I am not BSing, all it takes is some careful entering, like the 45 angle way which works miracles.

Thanks for all the compliments guys. i want HX wheels in flat black, but i am in Canada so those are very hard to get a hold of. As far as other stock oem wheels (SiR, GSR) i don't want them because I won't be able to go as low as i go now even though i love those wheels!

KJEG94, the pic of the *** is solid!!! That's EXACTLY how i want my rims, did you paint them, or were they powdercoated??

Also you are running on aftermarket rubber right? not stock, if so what size
