[PICS] KW's installed...finally slammed!

[AbsolutHank]

Ha! I've been in and around cars my whole life...I love how simple these cars are, and the majority of mods can be done by DIYers once you get past the fact you're working on a Viper!

Tell your father in law to drop it down!

 

[Synergy]

He thinks he won't be able to get around if he does that Will have to get you up here to get the cars next to each other so he can see the difference!

 

[AbsolutHank]

Sounds good!

I've always been happy how easy the lowered Vipers are to get around....NY streets could be a different story though!

 

[Zentenk]

I just had to get over scraping my front fascia, I cringed at first but now I don't care, it is driven... that's proof. Now if something totally rips it off, yeah that *****! haha

 

[Coloviper]

Can you measure the gap between wheel well and tire front and back for me? I have been considering lowering mine but just need a frame of reference as to what you have there.

Thanks
Rick

 

[AbsolutHank]

No problem Rick. I'll be back in town tomorrow afternoon.

The front tire is slightly tucking as it is, so I'll measure from the level ground to the center of the fender.

Rick here is a "regular" picture from our first VCA event of the year to give you an idea too!

Good job, you will get use to the scraping, it's all about looks.

 

[swexlin]

I like it! My 03 is lowered with Aldans, and I bought it with the front fascia scrapes, and do it ocassionally myself (just today, in fact). I try to be careful, but it goes with the territory.

Love that color Hank.

 

[Coloviper]

Hank;

Oh boy! That does look real, real good!

Thanks
Rick

PS Is that a black and red striped 4X4 beside you? Ha! ha!

I love the stance.

Hey Rick...the front is at 25 3/8", and the rear is at 27"...from the ground, up to the center of the fender opening

 

[Coloviper]

Thanks Hank

I also got the KW2, I'm at 25 5/8" front and 27 1/2" rear and scrape on something almost everytime I take the car for a ride.
Roads are bad in Quebec, this is as low as I will go.

The stance is perfect in person..... Now get some wheels!

Also it was nice meeting you!

You too man...hopefully you'll have your car out at the Dyno day next month

Looks great! But as you know it requires constant situational awareness when driving the vehicle that low to the ground around town. Pulling into driveways, parking lots, and driving over older speed bumps can easily bottom out the lower front bumper or bottom side sills. Unfortunately I know this all to well. Be aware!

Yup, I'm very aware...I had my old Viper lowered about this low for a year and a half
