NO CF SRT hood! Drop it and lose the wing and you're golden.

Looking good! Can't wait to see it dropped.

Not feeling the window moldings though, its killing your car.

I like the wing & skirts with the R/T front bumper

^ its not the original front end, its an SE, he added all those body parts.

Who said anything about changing the front end? I'm just saying keep your current hood. It looks smoother.

Welcome to 2gn a nice drop should do you fine, keep the wing.

What kind of suspension should I get? Any new one out there that's cheap, because I'm thinking about just cutting the spring to a 3 finger gap from tire to fender. Or just get the adjustable spring?

BTW the window visor really helps my window even though it kill the look but I'm in new england and need it when it snows.

FAC3L3SS · Post by **FAC3L3SS** » Sun Apr 25, 2010 8:44 pm

There are some cheap, legitimate lowering springs that will give you that gap you're looking for. Don't cut your springs. Also, if you're feeling spendy, you can get some coilovers.

Haganracing · Post by **Haganracing** » Sun Apr 25, 2010 9:04 pm

Don't cut your springs.. For the love of god don't do that!!

You can get coilovers if you want to go real low. I have eibach sportline lowering springs on my neon and I like them.

esfan · Post by **esfan** » Sun Apr 25, 2010 9:14 pm

Cutting spring=fail

Never do that, you can get a set of nice springs for less than $200 and they are good.

Adjustable springs? you mean the ebay "bicycle" coil springs? lol they will ruin your car in a week probably.

If you have the money, go for coilover...

I'll sell you my Tokico Blues struts and H&R Sport Limited Edition springs for $300. They have less than 8000 miles on em. Still look brand new.

It looks nice and clean, Sang.

The SRT hood will have a HUGE gap, just so you know.

all 2002 Neons had the same front bumper cover, however only the R/T had that bumper in 2001. There is a possibility that the CertiFit online catalogue could be wrong.

the lip on the bottom was only for r/ts if im not mistaken.

FAC3L3SS · Post by **FAC3L3SS** » Mon May 03, 2010 11:01 am

You guys are failing.

That bumper is an RT bumper. 2001-2002. Clearly not stock unless this CAR is an RT. If it's not, it means that he also added those skirts.

SRT hood will give a gnarly gap on ANY non-SRT Neon. The gap is plenty noticeable on either one.

Here is how it is...

The lipped bumper was used on the 2001-2002 R/Ts and ACRs

It isn't that bad on my car. A lot of the pics I take are from a pretty low level, but standing in front of the car, the gap isn't that bad.

Did you really just do that? Please refrain from doing that in the future.
