LOL. I know exactly what you are talking about; I've gotten into some predicaments myself taking pictures of things and places I didn't know would be problematic. 
This year when I was in Greece with my family a street vendor tried to take my Canon away from me for photographing his lamps. He thought I was trying to steal his desk lamp design--probably had no idea the lens alone costs more than everything he had there on his cart.

IBM building made me delete my pictures. They actually had two security guards come out and try to take possession of my camera. I told them I don't think so and they then wanted the CF card and I said Nope. So they said police or erase the pictures on the card. Well they won that battle

Hey Alpine_997: Your car looks beautiful. How's the driveability after the drop? I have to be careful now with the stock height.

Philly thank you. I would not change a thing besides how to exit/enter driveways
After an alignment tweak and corner balance the car is solid. I would not have it any other way. Although I don't daily drive it - it is easily more of a daily with the suspension(Bilsteins) than before. I drive it in Sport 90% of the time. When I go over some speed bumps I put it back to non-sport but it can be taken with sport.
If you have to be careful now then I would say that it would be worth the extra drop to be a little more careful Because in spots that you can take it a little harder it is worth the money! Besides you can always adjust it up a little if you need to

WOOT!! Thank you. I am waiting for a set of 19's like yours PAT Well almost like yours. It will be a similiar style with a little different design. Will know more in the upcoming months. I just want a set of 19's for GO! and Keep my 20's for SHOW. I like the OEM's okay about we all know once you have aftermarket wheels its hard to go back to OEM
