Ok I seen my car at the bodyshop today with the bumpers just sitting on to test fit. Damn does it look sweet, but dayum is it low now! I have Tanabe Superdowns, and only like 3 1/2 inches clearance now maybe.

Pretty scary w/ Alberta roads, not to mention I didn't pay all this money to not drive it at all. Looking at coilovers, I'm wondering would I be able to just buy some cheap OBX coilovers off ebay and use the perches with my Tanabe springs or would that be a no-no???

Those with the Veilside kit what do you recomend? How much clearnace do you have? And how bad is it going up curbs and into parking lot's, speed bumps, etc?????

Thanks.

After putting on my C-ONE kit, I couldn't get my car up my driveway and into my garage with the Super Down springs... I think you're doomed with the VS kit. :( I slapped on the coilovers and actually had to raise it a little bit in front to be able to go anywhere.

i dont know if i would do that... usually coilover springs are smaller than normal springs

this is why i haven't lowered my car. probably going to have to stick to trd springs. although the dealer only had about .2 inches of clearance on the drive on ramps as it is.
