I love the bar, and with the side-skirts and rear bar I I think with maybe a little more low I'd be happy :)
Pretty much exactly how Dwayne's sits...

I've got the whole kit but only have the front bar currently installed. And am yet to buy coilovers.
Over here in NZ, you're allowed the body kit to be as low as you like, as long as the chassis is 10cm or higher above the ground, and you can certify it to be lower if you like.

    Just purchased coil-overs, so curious to see how low I will be able to get it, and still be usable :tongue:

    Think you'd do with a flared guard on that rear haha. Nice design though and that dish is sweet. Can you grab some more side on pics of the fronts?

    I picked up a second hand set of D2 coilovers for $250, I figured if they were crap I could throw them into the Auto-X FTO, otherwise I'll throw them in mine and get it certed.

    I've lowered mine on them for now, but it's currently sitting far too low, and I can't turn :oops:

    I'm liking your new wheels though!
