the plastic undertray will be the least of your worries... you should see how beat up my front sway bar and both W braces are. i even had the wires to my driver side O2 sensor ripped out. just more reason for me to work on my full undertray, it also may incorporate slimmer replacements for the W braces thanks to ideas from GTspec

Well I raised the front up a bit, Saturday or Sunday I'll raise the the rear so I keep the stock rake.
Front upper control arm was hitting the chassis and I didn't want to have them on full stiff.
I'm gonna make an undertray at least for the front section while I save for camber arms.

Camber arms? For the rear i hope.
What coils did you get? Set the damper stiffer to not bottom out the arms, the spring rate may cause bounce though. Are you adjusting right? I preloaded my front springs 1/2" then take the whole thing out to adjust height by lowering the damper not the spring.
Also an important word of advice... If running stock exhaust on a slammed Z get your stock resonator removed so it wont cut into the drive shaft on bumps and inclines

I just might have to get a different resonator or something, I have stock exhaust without a muffler and I fear it's gonna be raspy if I take it out. Mine hasn't scraped it hit anything but I haven't driven it much at this height.
Someone buy my Volks so I can get camber arms right now

Houston Coffee & Cars Dec 4
Curious if anyone is going? They said the new location is Marq-E entertainment center, 7620 Katy Fwy 77024. 8am-10am. But those that have been know cars start showing up at 7am. I'm unfamiliar with the parking there.
