Lowered my car today (in photoshop...lol) What do you guys think? :D:iono:

Realistically, I'm still debating if I want to get springs for now and coils later when I can afford them or if I should just wait. Ideas?

Thanks! :D I got bored last night, took me about an hour. Had to outline the car with the pen tool and drag it down. Then it left this white outline from where I moved it and I used the clone stamp to just blend the background downwards to make it took realistic.

or you can just get raceland coils for 300 and call it a day....doesnt sound like you want anything too serious and i've heard lots of positive reviews on them.

Heres 2 requests ive got today to lower also, lol. Maybe I should start a pshop business...:p



This one im not done with yet, but im too tired to keep going at the moment but wanted to post what I had so far. I need to fix the undercarriage, the part above the hood and windshield and im gonna *try* to black out the roof and color match the front lip, side skirts and rear bumper.

There's a TON of info on Racelands on the older generations. Lots of MK4 guys swear by them, but the MK5 community is a little more skeptical. I think there have been a few issues with endlinks, but a quick fix for a set of $400 coils might be worth it to some.

There are alot of haters b/c the kit is so cheap - quick to pass them off as garbage - yet several people have been running them for 10k with no problems.
