I'm up for suggestions...what do you think the next mod should be? I've priced out stance gr+ pro coilovers and camber arms. I've also priced out the remaining pieces of the C-West style carbon fiber kit. Not sure which one of the two would set the car off right. I'm also afraid if I go lower I'd have to move to smaller tires. I'm running 265 fronts, 285 rears right now and I get a slight rub from time to time and I'm still sitting on springs and stock shocks

this is just personal preference but i like the way our cars look without side skirts. the stock ones look very sleek and i have not seen to many that look as good. i really like the way your wheels turned out though! i like the way it sits now but i think a little lower would look nice as well. overall though its looking very nice and good luck!

I had the same lip on my ppw similar drop same spec rims(advan rgII's) and that lip needs sides or something. I ditched it for the V2 front. I really like the veilside lip just bc its simplistic and wont out do the wheels.

I love those weds though. And blue looks to be the color choice of early 2011. I say go lower and change the front lip. Ethier Veilside, aerosync.

Car looks great!

I think it either needs to go lower, or I need to finish it off by adding the rest of the CW carbon kit. Any opinions?

***The blue is brighter/lighter in the daytime. The sun was going down in these pics so they look darker than normal:




Looks really really really nice

Like he said, that lip is too big for a stock body. I would change it out for something smaller(veilside or mines) and get some diffusers for the sides, can't remember who makes them but they look like this

I wouldn't get coilovers just yet, I think it looks good as is(height wise)
