That looks awesome! I really want to lower mine as well, but I'm worried about scraping the heck out of my front bumper since I got the GT3 kit installed. I actually have to be very careful even w/ the stock set up. Any suggestions??

After I purchased my Ruger Mesh wheels, I felt like the wheel gap looked a bit more pronounced so I decided to bite the bullet and lower the car a bit. I am not planning on tracking my car so this was purely for looks. The car sits a little bit lower than what I expected but I love the way it looks without any wheel rub. The only thing that scrapes is the plastic diffuser on the front end. I have an aftermarket GT3 type of front bumper cover and so far after 500 miles, no issues with scraping the bumper cover.
who make that front bumper?

I don't know who makes the front bumper because I bought it from another board member who had it on his car when he purchased it from a dealer. There are no markings on the bumper, but some have mentioned that it looks like an Aerotek bumper cover.

Austex911.... What kind of tires do you have and what size in rear? I just bought the exact same set up (AG Ruger and Eibach) and trying to decide if I should go 295 or 305 in rear.
Thanks

I have Hankook Ventus V12 295/30/19 in the rear. I think that you can go 305 in the rear, but the offset may look a bit agressive. With the 295s, the tire pretty much sits flush with the fender.
