Well I wasnt planning on doing it to that car. That is a REALLY old picture. I think its one Serge took before he sold it to me. The car still sits that high cause it has just about no interior


Anyways, that story Steve posted is the reason I just cant bear to part with that car. Its got a good story behind it, and I'm not gonna let it end up somewhere bad. My brother and I are planning on making it the track car Serge had been working on.

Ah, cool stuff. If you're going to make it a race car, thats just even more of a reason to lower it.

Welp I guess I got my answer, haha.

I still need to figure out something to do about the lower edge of the rocker panels. 1.5k worth of body work isnt what I wanna do.

I don't like it. Krystar's edit makes it look better, but I still think it looks best stock. I agree with those who say it would look better lowered with the body kit pieces though. But hey, it's your car, if you like these things then go for it.

For the record, I can see what you're trying to show in the picture and I think it would potentially look good if they were made decently. Its just hard to show how they would look in photoshop. Well, I'm assuming you want to make some skirts that will end up looking like this, just with the lines for the skirt at whatever point.

good luck getting it on a jack or lift.

i took the factory side skirts off, too much of a pita to get it in the air.
