    Have you seen how high these cars are stock? lol. Maybe it's the angle of the pics, it's pretty low. I can't go over speed bumps normally, and the underside is pretty banged up.

    Your car doesn't look like it was any lower than mine mack and I don't think I was 4 inches lower. We had the same wheel specs too

    Well maybe my car was higher than it should have been stock, but I doubt it since my struts were blown.

    The only thing you changed was the springs, right? Tein S-techs and you cut the fronts? The drop would be 1.5" rear and 2"+ your cut in the front.

    I'll try finding one later. But I think it didn't bottom out cause I drive cautiously. I haven't even bottomed out in the BMW. Going all sideways and shit

    I'll bottom out sometimes, if I hit a pothole going around a corner fast. The suspension hits the underneath of the car.

    I'm pretty careful too, but like gold kinda stated, sometimes you can't avoid it.

    You can get a mil-spec harness from RyWire, but that's very $$$. You can do a part tuck on your own by putting the fuseboxes in the glovebox.
