Hey TheBman, just a few pics for you on my beast with the blackout lion.Here are some pics of the ride, she's a little dusty today, probably not the ideal day for it. Best quality I could get for now.

EbayHey 207, nice look! What did you use to do the blackout?
Hey bman, my thoughts are the same, I am not really keen on changing anything unless it's a straight bolt on bolt off set up, ( at the moment anyway, hard to rule out a supercharged set up after being in a 1000 horsepower redline lol but that would be years away) the ride height seems to be the only contentious issue I have now, I want the supple handling and awesome factory grip, and power down they come with I am just a little perturbed about the somewhat 4wd look they can have, the vf redlines I have test driven, walked around, and worked on, just seem to be that tad high, yours looks nicely balanced though.

Looking at the brochure, in the dimensions it doesn't seem to differentiate the height between the SS and the Redline - but I'm assuming with the FE3 suspension they do sit a little lower? How much lower? I'd feel more comfortable getting a 'factory' ride height, but even the some of the Redlines seem to look like they need to be dropped just a tad.
That's good idea, as long as you measure from the wheel arch to axle.Thanks @Strattos! I've tried to read up on the shock/sprint rate/height differences between FE2 & FE3, and my conclusion (happy to stand corrected) is that in terms of ride height they'd be pretty much the same, if not identical. One will just offer a firmer ride with sportier response.
This might sound silly, but I wondered it you could just take a tape measure to a local dealer that has a SS and a Redline and take some sneaky measurements front and rear

BuggerMy vf2 redline wagon sits at 16cm measured to the subframe behind front wheel, my Ve Z series, was 12cm to the same spot...
The Vf is almost the same as the wifes CX5!!!!! it is nuts
This is one damn fine looking car, my man. Menacing and stylish at the same time. Seriously, anyone ordering SOAG has got to be happy. Especially like the gloss black logos.Hey TheBman, just a few pics for you on my beast with the blackout lion.
