Here's a quick shots after the PSS9 install. Thanks to Seth Agnew @ Technical Dimensions for a superb job on the install and corner balance. The car drives incredibly and will be even sweeter after alignment tomorrow.

Re: PHOTOS: PSS9 Install

Not sure if it's the angle of the shot or perhaps just your preference, but usually, our cars when lowered should be slightly raked lowered in the front.

Your car appears to be slightly higher in the front, giving it a squated look at the rear. With all the weight in the back, this look will only be exacerbated in the future. Not to mention, aerodynamically speaking, it's really not a good idea to be pitched with the nose up. It creates lift.

If you preference is as it's set, then cool, to each his own. Otherwise, have Seth re-adjust the height.

Its just the way the driveway is because the car is racked with the front lower..
Forgot to plug "Seth" at Technical Dimensions, located in Jacksonville Florida, who's extremely tuned in to his work...

Are you kidding me....It took me a day just to figure out how to change to the new avatar... I can tell you that I'm "Very pleased" with the results of everything and that I almost pissed myself on the 1st test drive after

Rob is correct Stephen... the driveway makes it appear to be more squatted than it really is. It is very balanced and even more so now that the alignment is complete. I will post some more pictures when I get a chance.
