    im looking at lowering my VS but not sure how low to go. I dont really want it so low that it bottoms out every time i go over a bump. If anyone has pics of their car on lows, super lows or ultra lows can you post em up so i can check what they look like.

    cheers

    heres a pic of mine with superlows, the back is a little high i think, but its practical...if i were to put ultras on id have dramas. i already scrape on speed humps if there is more than two people in the car (unless i do "the crab", lol) but thats mainly because of the side skirts. it also scrubbs out on the guards on rare occations.
