Thanks! Its still under warranty so the drop will be at a latter date. The door is slightly jacked up. Someone hit me a few weeks ago.

Wow that sucks on the door man!!! My Camaro was still under warranty when I dropped it, no issues with them at all about it. These suspensions are way better than the "old school" ones back in the day. I didn't need to have any work done on it til last year!! Tie rod ends.. Just keep the alignment spot on and tire pressures correct. It's what I do...

Hmm, the height is really bothering me. I know as soon as I drop it the shocks will go out. Lol

lol, don't think that way about the shocks/struts. That is normal wear and tear on these cars. Like I said, you keep on top if the suspension and tires and they will last. And don't go any lower than 1.25 and you won't need any aftermarket camber plates and offset caster/camber bushings. From what I have read on here in the suspension section. In the 9 years I have had mine she has only been on the alignment rack 4 times and all is still good!!!

I started reading the suspension thread and you might have talking me into it. I’m looking at the BMR or PFADT with the 1.25 drop. I’ll do a little more reading but I’m thinking BMR just because they’re cheaper.

Cool. I did the PFADT's on mine and I really like the ride! After I did them one of my friends wanted to do his, so I took him for a long ride and I let him drive her back to his house and he liked the way it rode so he ordered them the same day!! Very happy with them. Mine have been in the car for about 7 yrs now.

Nice looking wheels. I have BC Racing coil overs on mine. I wish there was someone else with different ones here I could ride in to know the difference lol. They were on the car when I got her.
