Alvin, how much did you drop your rear?

If I do 1" or so front, how much do you think rear will be to match the front gap size?

Or should I ask Justin about it when I do my HAS.

Mine is about 1.2" front and .8" rears. If you come by the meet tomorrow in Montrose you can see it.

hi guys,

What about the rest ground clearance after installing the m performance lip and the m performance HAS.

My thought:
Stock Ground clearance - 6 inch
M Performance lip - 1 inch
Lowering with HAS - 1 inch

So I have the new ground clearnce of 4 inch. Can you confirm...do you have this setup on your car?

Best wishes

Some driveways are impossible to take at an angle.

That's why I'm not lowered yet.

Do you have more pictures? I'm going to put on my lip soon but I don't know if i want to drop it or not.

I got the lightweight lip which is similar to the m performance front lip. From my driveway I was literally 2 inches from scraping. Now if I add in the bounce from my driveway it is only 1 inch before I scrape. So if I lower I will scrape from the bounce which is why I am having a hard time myself deciding if I should lower or not.

with 20 inch wheels , does your front lip have 4inch ground clearance?

I made my own Little skidplate under the M P splitter. This is my Dewalt screwdriver so i can almost run it over.

Lowered on Emanuel design springs, with 20in wheels, my m performance lip is 3.5" from the ground.

I didn't want to highjack the thread but this opened the door to my question. I know it's a loaded and somewhat subjective but….

At what point are you considering installing an Oil Cooler Guard? Several options out there and I have included (1) just for reference & convenience.
