Angry My car is too low to get home!!

Too F-in Low!! I thought the R1 was a little lower then stock, but now I cant even get my car into my complex...WTF?!?!

I am on 18's, 40 series, on Espilir JDM's and still seems pretty low, even compared to designmanfx's...

What to do besides wait for my R2...

Your car isn't even that low. Look at that fender gap! I assume its your body kit. Even with stock height, you'd probably still have trouble.

Doesn't look low with that gap, but from a true side angle, it's hella low.. **** the Cali driveways..wish I lived in a flat state now.

Umm.... I do not understand this post , isnt your car in your garage? Or is at the shop who lowered it? Mine is just as low as that and my garage/drive way is a pain in the azz to get in, Its sloped at 3 different angles and....its just a pain.

Your car looks good though , what is the problem??? Does the wheel rub on the front kit???

Are those 18's?? It does look lower in the 3rd pic.... Put some 19's or 20's then it should raise it a hair or two....

Put the camera on the ground and take one of the car like that.......

In the 2nd picture it looks like your hood is not closed all the way, or maybe its not... I want to see it from the front.....

Ya, dem dere are 18's...My car is very low before the new R1 with only the Espilir JDM Springs and 18's. Now I have to figure out where the hell I am gonna park this car. I guess now it is officially a show-car, as it is no longer streetable with the R1..

Cant wait for my new R2 to come out...

Nah niggggas, that's not my garage, that's my local shop, I dont smoke!! Haha

It was already lowered, the shop just put on the bumper..It is still at the shop though...

It should not be that low with just the R1, but the spring and bumper combo dropped me 'like kids at the pool...'

Now, what the hell do I do, pay for a storage unit to park this ****??

Car looks sweet man! One question though. Do you really want to compromise drivabitily just for looks? I just don't understand why your evo is just a show car- I'd have to drive that all over the place if I had one! -Not flaming-
