Well after hours in the garage last night the car is finally dropped with the eibach pro kit! i havent really driven it that much yet cause my friend whos doing the alignment for me is in vegas right now but it'll hopefully be done tomorrow. Sorry its a little dirty also i havent washed it in over a week.

Heres a pic of the clear corners and tinted turn signals:

and the drop!

THANKS FOR LOOKING!

Looks awesome bro

I'll be running that same drop shortly and would love to see as many angles of it as you can get

ill see what i can do...its in the garage so i didnt really have room to take good pics but ill back it out in a little while and get some good ones for you

**2focusd** · 07-21-2007, 05:18 PM

Thank you so much bro

Now are you running the Sportline springs with the ~2" drop?

-Brian

**SoCalSVTfocus** · 07-21-2007, 05:25 PM

no its the pro kit.... -1.4 in the front and -1.5 in the back

I think that is what the drop would be on a standard ZX3, I think it's closer to a 3/4 inch drop. Either way it looks great, and it's the same setup I'm running. I've been very happy with it.

**2focusd** · 07-22-2007, 01:45 AM

X2- I want non-orange grille signals and all the grilles I can find with clear ones arent as cool as my svt so this might be the way to go. Can you post some How-To? Thanks man, BTW nice ride!

**2focusd** · 07-25-2007, 12:05 AM

Be careful because the cling tint method may cause the plastic on the turn signals to feather/crack. The best, as well as the safest in my opinion, way to go with a blacked-out turn signal/tail light/whatever else you wanted tinted look is to pick up a can of VHT Niteshades from any auto parts store for around 10 bucks and spray on a few light coats

I'm still waiting for that uber variety of pictures from you too SoCalSVTFocus
