I don't like the body kit or the paint theme. And the front looks alot higher than the rear. You should slam it lower.

Nice work though.

I have BC Sports Coilovers on it, the only reason the front end is so high was to get it on the alignment rack, i plan on lowering it again just havent had the chance to do it..

You know that when you change ride height, your camber and toe change as well, right? So there was no point in doing the alignment.

But yes, very nice work. Car is well done.

yes i do know that however the reason it needed an alignment was cause i had just finished putting in SRT-4 front brakes, BC Sports Coilovers & Urethane suspension bushings. so when they did the alignment he left a little bit of toe so i could drop it a little more when i was done...

Well, I do my own alignments without any specialized tools, so if you can eyeball it good enough, so be it. Just pay extra attention to toe. That's what shreds tires quickly.
