How low can the stock bolts go?
Can some of you post some pictures of your lowered cars.
Tell me how much you lowered it. Thanks

My opinion to you is just to replace the bolts with some zip bolts nothing would suck more than spending all the time dropping te car on stock bolts and realising that you want it lower and having to do it all over again. The bolts are cheap I think I paid $50 shipped.

Just my 2 cents!

Also your going to have to go w/ longer bolts in the rear. It's not a good idea to keep the stock ones out back w/ only a thread or two left showing. When you start your lowering mod, start w/ the front. Good luck.

Mine dropped 3/4 in the front and 1/2" in the back. The back was not lowered all the way to maintain the factory rake of the car. I have pics up in a thread I just posted, search my name.
