So is it just me or does the car look stock height? I am lowered on Tein S techs which is about a 1.5-1.8" drop. Hmmm looks like I may get this lip kit sooner than later to bring it lower to the ground.

Ive already taken it off. It cracked after the first drive. I think paint that flexs will work best as it'll flex with the tire.
