LOL, I forgot about that...I ground through my fingernail with an angle grinder, then I accidentally covered it with paint.....LOL

Just tell the truth..seeing your car sit really low makes you all warm and fuzzy inside like a girl, so you attempted painting your fingernails. However, you learned you couldnt paint fingernails as good as fenders...so you give the whol grinder excuse... ;)

Heard it all before.
And im seriously just kidding.

Not true at all. I enrolled in a 6 week course which showed me several techniques which I would have otherwise not known. Ones such as the "45 degree ramp exit", or the "dodge the potholes" manevour. I'm glad I took part in such a course, as it taught me the ways of the lowered cars.

lol, i think eric needs that course. I've seen milk that lasts longer than his front ends.

My Car: 6 inches even and can obtain picture if arguement ensues. .... that's high, I need smaller wheels. And a lip.

I learned from the old bagged Dodge. I always rolled around with it as low as possible, and I was to lazy to raise it up to go over stuff. I used to get the most horrible looks from people when the whole frame would drag going over something. :D

My jackpoints are 1 1/2in off the ground and with the kit on it I can bury the side skirts. So I win :D

The Cub Cadet at home gets the same treatment. When the time comes for a transition from grass to driveway, like hell if I'm gonna raise the blade platform. That concrete slab will just have to smooth itself out. Otherwise, get ready for blade setting #2!

The headers drag with more than one person in the car... so no riders..

now that's what I like to hear. must be a 4-2-1 b/c most 4-1's have more clearance. I must be a dune buggy compared to everyone else. This blows.

lol.. that sucks. i would like to lower my car some more, but i like my headers a lot better than not having wheel gap

The headers in my RoadRunner used to drag the ground if I goosed it hard in first then let off of it...it sucked because I had the drivers side lower tubes almost crimped off. It looked good setting low, but it was kind hard on it if i was getting on it alot on a bumpy road.
