I know! Thankfully I was able to make use of the 1 hour of sun @ 10 to clean and prep the skirts and stick on the tape. Now if only this rain would go away!

Seattle Lowering Road Trip May 31

Saturday, May 31st, we want to lower TEN 86's on a single day in my shop. Tyler and I have lowered a couple dozen already, with absolutely happy owners as a result. I'd like to invite some Seattle-area owner's to road trip to Portland for a day in their stock-height cars, and drive back with the proper stance.

Here is the official topic for the lowering deal:
http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=62613

Cost is $40 cash and a 12-pack of beer for the shop fridge.
You must bring your own springs, so order them now!

Begin discussion.... now!

Front lip fits good. It's well made and not all warped looking like the ebay replicas. I couldn't be more satisfied. Paint does not match, which is a downer. It actually matched better when it was still primered. lol.

Not sure how much the drop is on Yellows, but I will need to pick up a set of LCA to get back to 100% alignment.

love the ride height, and look with the 17 X 9 245/40/17

I've installed a couple sets of the Teins so far... but I don't remember whose car they were on! They looked good.
