LOL, true dat! hehe

Dunno about the front but I'm pretty sure I haven't seen any other EA's lower in the rear than mine ;) Here's a pic taken a few days ago not photo chopped or anything.



But as of today this car ain't mine anymore! You'll see it cruising the streets of Albury with a new owner next week :P

DUMPT - That will look awesome but I think a wise choice then will be to invest in a sump guard plate and raise the exhaust closer to the floor.

I think it might have to remain parked in the street as you won't be getting up many drive ways, LOL. It will look crazy (No body roll while frequently sideways).

i'd be fairly confident in saying my eb is the lowest car out of the SA eseries owner group, although Ehab's beast could be a tad lower.

seen a few lowered eseries over here today too. (i'm in NZ for the next two weeks)

Cool Who has the LOWEST CAR??

I am not trying to be an idiot - but what is the point of having the car lowered so much that every bump you go over is going to scrap the undercarriage of the car. I am of the old school - I had my car raised. I am about to go to replica ELGT rims with 235x17 and I realise I will need to lower my car to make the rims look good, but I don't know that I would lower it to the height you guys want on your cars.:
