not everyone will think it's aggressive enough, but it's just my style.

great choice on wheels and springs. functionality is #1 for me too.

hmm... the more i look at these pictures, the more im realizing that i didnt choose very flattering angles.. the car looks much meaner in person i think.. lm gonna take more shots this weekend... i really want to find an angle that showcases the 295s in the rear, cause those things look just nasty

but you're right this is a VERY mild drop... but there's definetely a difference from stock to what i have now (i measured)...

good looking car. I would personally lose the tow hook until you got some more body mods, or maybe just a lip. Kind of looks out of place on a stock body. IMHO.

w00t!

/sarcasm

Obviously I'm being facetious. Leave it alone. I think it looks VERY nice just like it is. Subtle and stylish. You don't have to go for the "cartoonish", over done look on every mod. I think you achieved exactly the look you were probably going for. Same thing I have in mind for my '07.

Good on ya!
