    Well I finally got my car lowered, and I have to say i'm pretty excited as to how sexy it looks to me. The springs are SSC's running on newer oem struts. Rims are 18" Zinik Risso's.

    Here is the before pics...


    and After






    Thanks Jay (Abrasive) and Brian (Reptile) for the awesome job!

    Thanks for all the comments!

    I think it looks great. The wheel gap in the front on the first picture is what was driving me insane. Now it has a low, even, aggressive stance with the wheels hugging the fenders perfectly with no rubbing issues at all.

    I think its a dramatic turn around from what it used to look like right before I bought it.




    I never thought I could make a gold grand prix look good (I got the car for $2700 and thought what the heck.)

    It spun a rod bearing. There were metal shaving every in the oil and tore up the crankshaft. So to me it was not worth my money to buy a different motor and put it in there, so I sold it and wanted to start over with a newer and lower mileage car. Lower miles beacuse I going to auto tech in the fall and then will start to slowly mod the car with all the tools I will have the ability to maybe use the shop.

    FFFUUUUUU... Man, I'm gonna have to lower my car now. I still don't care for the lettering on the lip of those wheels but GD, They look hot from a distance. Great looking car dude. I've never seen another GP in that color before.

    Thanks! The color is a bit hard to come by. I haven't personally seen any on the road around KC the same color. And the lettering on the lip is pretty much unnoticed from 10 feet. I wasn't a huge fan either, but they look sexy.

    Lol, I don't post a whole lot and generally just lurk and soak information. Maybe you just never realized it? I live in Lawson btw, like 30 miles north of KC on 35.
