Spacers aren't top of the list for me yet, going to buy some things for camber adjustment first. I have a buddy with 25mm spacers who said he'd be down to let me try them. So I'll try to slap em on and take pics for you.

lowering the car on stock wheels makes for a world of difference. Good work!

Here's some more pictures of how it's sitting, going lower tomorrow probably.

Oh and I finally hit something today, such a loud bang, hahaha.

Pics! How lows it sitting? I've been afraid to go lower, I was looking at how low the diff sits in our cars, and this being my first lowered car I want to gradually move into the super-low area. haha

Yes. Lower shock units, apparently anyway. I haven't seen pictures of normal BR's yet.
