Looks awesome! I just dropped mine too and at first I had the 2" drop springs which I later swapped out for the 1.2" drop. The handling was freakin amazing, but it was too harsh on the bumps!

Looking at your pics I can almost say for sure it dropped more than 1.25". Did you actually measure before and after?? I will post pics of mine before and after installing the H&R 1.2" drop springs and you will see it actually drops a lot more than they claim. However it still looks good!

How did you get your exhaust tips painted blk? I believe they are spot welded to the muffler and can not be removed! I assume your painter taped everything off and sprayed them??
