Looks great! The mild drop looks perfect. Can't wait to get my Kazera springs on the daily...

Jeff: Let me know how you make out

Chris: HA HA! That's hilarious we went with the same spring setup on the dailys. Other than the Mopars they seemed the best for what I wanted. Thank you

Indeed. I think they are great springs for a daily. Just enough drop to get rid of MTS (monster truck status), without compromising drivability.

I've had my damn set laying around since August and they're still not on the car...

At this point I'm just going to wait for spring when I swap off the winter wheels/tires.

Mine had been laying around since two weeks after I bought him in October. So I was getting there. But after I did the wheels it really accentuated how much he needed to be lowered

No, not sarcasm. When I first looked at the car, I thought the lids were molded to the hood. Looks aggressive.

rockstar: Thanks!!!

Uriah: Ha ha that's why I asked I couldn't tell!

Thank you

I love the shorties for that reason: aggressiveness.

Looks real nice. I have to give a

to the eyelids though. Never have, and never will like them. On any car. But other than that, it's pretty darn perfect.

Although you realize that it's not truly a DD anymore. I mean, yes, you drive it everyday, but as a second car, it's not just the beater. It's some 16 year old kids dream Neon.....and it's just what you did in a couple weeks to make it livable for yourself.

Fuzzy:

that works!

quicksilvr: Thank you I can respect that, a lot of neon owners don't I just have a soft spot for them.

We never bought the car to be a beater, we bought it to be a daily driver/second car, that had a stock motor, and looked good. I spent very little cash to get it to look the way it does in the past four months. To me it's definitely a daily driver, way more so than the SRT.

Mmmm love it ^.^

I've always loved the stock 7 spokes painted black.

I'd go that route, versus aftermarket rims, anyday.

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Thu Feb 04, 2010 9:19 pm

I actually chose those over the aftermarkets that were on the car originally after seeing Kyle's painted black. I really like the seven spokes.

thank you

damn the car looks sexy and i don't even like yellow but i'd rock that car.

to you crystal for making it look so nice.

Nice pictures. What wheels will it get during the other 3 seasons since you have winter tread on those tires? Or are you just going to swap out tires on those stockers?

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Fri Feb 05, 2010 9:05 am

smallblock: Thank you!

I wasn't a yellow fan at first either but it really grew on me.

MyNeonSaysHi: Swapping out tires on these. The car rides great with all of this cushioning...I like it

I grew up not really even noticing cars. I got my first car and I loved it. Lasted me 6 years before I started having problems. When I bought my Neon I thought of it as just a car to get me from point A to point B until my first car was fixed. But that little car snuck into my ticker. I have a friend that owns a hooked up Mazda RX8 and he was getting a part in PA when it broke down on him in Hagerstown. My little champ of a car swooped in and saved the day. I love this little car

Neons do that to you

the prejectors are sick

dont like the shorty eyelids much, but that a taste thing, otherwise its a sweet little daily

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Sat Feb 06, 2010 10:28 am

Thanks Teej, your car cemented leaving the exhaust section black in my mind. I loved the way it looked on yours with no exhaust visible.

theTeejmiester · Post by **theTeejmiester** » Sat Feb 06, 2010 3:20 pm

thanks crystal, the rears look so clean without the exhaust visible. i get so many comments on it from guys with cans lol

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Sat Feb 06, 2010 3:36 pm

I would never run a can, it was stock or the R/T. But seeing your car made me want to stick with stock. The only thing I didn't do was trim the little tip off, but it doesn't bother me much right now. Is your exhaust stock?
