yes. thats why you go sideways over any speed bump or incline. you will learn quick or you will scrape everything.

What about stock? The kit is being put on right now at the bodyshop I have the suspension in the garage waiting to be put on. Is the pro-kit worth the hassel? or is it going to hit anyway?

the Veilside rip off body kit you have will scrape speed bumps anyways. If you lower the vehicle, you will be unable to drive it in my opinion.

If you have the kit, put it on, then decide if you want to lower it. I doubt you will. I suggest driving with it unpainted for a few weeks, that way they can fix any cracks or blemishes it gets while you learn how to drive it.

haha.gif ^^ well they ripped off vielside soo... ripoffs. im not sure if your meaning that^ as erubuni doesnt rip people off or as maj meant they copyed vielside= ripoff, knock off, copy cat etc....invader is just a copyed kit its not a insult just the truth. sorta like burned dvd's just as good but not as great. you get it?
your fitment will not be great sence its a mold of a kit and not a origional mold from the creator.

i need to slant to get up drive ways and speed bumps so that i dont scrape my front and my exhaust... thats just cause my car is slammed.. not sure how low the kit really is but slanting up and down bumps/driveways does help.
