Thanks,

I allways wave I lowered it a few days aftor I got it.
It came stock except the window tint and chrome WWs, so I do not know what % it is. Some of the pics had the passenger side window down.

Yes, pretty much.

The back has new longer bolts.

The frount I lowered it as far as it would go, also cut the rubber pad.
I tryed it w/no bolt and It was 3/8"" lower but did not ride as well.


From the center of the wheel well openings frount/back

@ 26" FROUNT

@ 26 1/2" Back

Air dam 2 1/4" from the ground.

Thanks for looking all,
Paul G.
