Where did you get it done. I have mine lowered on stock bolts, but where do you get the longer bolts? Did the dealer do it for you? Sorry if it is a dumb question but I don't know anything about longer bolts and cutting bushings!

Yes those are 18's all the way around. The bolts are 6.5 inch or 7 inch grade 8 bolts from Ace Hardware. I just took a stock bolt to Ace and bought a longer ones. I bought a couple of sets for friends since we all lowered our cars.
For those who want to lower there car just do a search on here for "lowering" and you should have plenty of info. Thats how I learned how to do it a few years back. Now after lowering a few I can do it in about 30-60 mins. Its really not that hard.
Love the lowered look!

If you look at the first pic you can see my driveway is pretty bad, almost like driving over the curb to get in. I have to go at big angle, from one side to the other just to get in.
