Car looks great knowing that a DROP is in the plan for the future.

Kinda of a bummer to go w/ a stock color when repainting the whole car?

Needs a drop asap! But looks good! How badly scratched was it that you repainted the whole car?

BAD! You could see the damage from a mile away. And when I say scratched, I mean vandalized! mother ****er piece of **** bastards!!!

I couldn't do anything crazy with the color because Insurance cut the shop a check for exactly the $ to spray it black.

I could have opted for a diff color or paid extra for a candy paint but at that point I just wanted it back to how it was!...I only had it for 1week before it got f**ked up!!

20 25 is pretty aggressive offsets.
What tire sizes are you running?
depends on your tire size, you need to drop with certain springs, unless your tire is stretched.

I'm actually w/ the vote that you should have picked up Loi's coils! esp w/ those offsets

I say go lower than Eibachs or swap tires! U will be stretched when u don't need to be! W Eibachs go 245/275 for sure . Otherwise keep tires and go coils and go for a low drop , that should make the wheel/tire package stand out way more. Nice pics though love the job they did looks like they left better than B4 lol.
