Ok...it's dropped approx. 1", and added the stock tails back:

I'd go with somethink like Progress Technology springs...give a nice, even 1.8" drop. That car would look SOOOOO sexy with the wheels and the springs! DO IT!

Thanks bro. Well no thanks for causing a mess in my pantolones...

When you get a free min see if you can tuck a little tire, just for shits and grins. The progress springs would only get me another 0.3" all around; not worth the hassle. I want coilovers but its not in the cards anytime soon.

Yeah, coilovers would be sweetness, if you can afford them!
Here a go:

Damn Derek you got me wanting the second set of rims on your wish list. The ride is looking badass with the painted wheels.

The latest and greatest. Poor lighting and an even poorer photographer, but they get the point across.

Enjoy

Looks good but where is your front grille pieces?

did you make that diffuser yourself? how hard was it?

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Sat Jul 26, 2008 3:21 pm

I'm with Anthony, it does look good but what happened to the grilles themselves? And why is the plate offset?

srtjesse · Post by **srtjesse** » Sat Jul 26, 2008 5:43 pm

wow man car looks nice good job

TNK · Post by **TNK** » Sat Jul 26, 2008 5:56 pm

how did you get the grille trim to stay in place without the mesh?

car looks good, but needs the wheels in brodies chop. what exhaust is that?

also, what size tires you runnin? i like the meatyness of them.

where did you get that rear diffuser?

OB · Post by OB » Sun Jul 27, 2008 12:35 pm

Honeycomb has been out for a couple years now. I had some shitty black mesh in there but it got screwed up so I took it out and never replaced it. Really havent had a reason to, it looks fine without it IMO. Plus mesh is a bit tacky if you ask me, and the honeycomb is just straight up nasty.

The diffuser is custom. I started designing it last year. After a lot of measuring and remeasureing, I made a few cuts and formed a base, then designed the fins. I have two more fins to fill out the center, but havent finished work on them yet, not to mention I still dont know if i'm gonna use them. Clearance is an issue; the lower end of the fins are only about 3" from the ground. That should be fixed soon.

The muffler is a Vibrant Performance unit. I have the rear slip pipe welded to it and it uses the factory hanger location so I can interchange it with the stock unit if needed.

Tires are Yokohama AVID V4S in 205/55/15

Thanks for the feedback guys

i like the exhaust... alot. good work buddy.

While I agree the honeycomb looks horrid, having nothing there at all just looks barren. I also like the look of not having a spoiler. I'm thinking about picking up a trunk from the local yard because it doesn't have the holes.

Thanks fellas. Yeah teej there's another SRT-D OB but he hasnt been on in awhile. And I remember seeing another one too wingless with painted wheels but its been awhile. I think we're the only two regulars for sure.
