The front splitter also functions as the front parking sensor.

I wanna go low too. H&R has always treated me right. What struts/shocks did you replace with? Or are guys still running oem?

OK, I installed a set of H&Rs today...To me its a little to low for my liking...I think 7/8 would be just right....I notice most of you are using spacers...Are you adding them to get the wheels out a little more to complete the look? I still like it better than the stock height tho...

Viper I looked at H&R then settled on eibach with 20mm drop however the best option in my opinion is the xkrs springs??

That spoiler is killer. Car looks epic. Minus the caliper covers. Your car is way too cool for that.
