Well I haven't posted in a while because I've been really busy with school, but now it is over and I am trying to kill some time. So here are some recent pictures of my car from a couple months ago. I did not detail it, just a quick wash at the time. I plan to perform a detail in the next couple of weeks since my last one was in August 2012. Since the last detail, I have added lowering springs and new shocks (H&R + Koni Yellow), BBK and some retrofitted headlights. The car had 112k I believe when these photos were taken. Enjoy!

And for some reason I like this photo:

How is the ride with the lowering springs? I am considering them on mine as well. I have a 2012 with 20s. I like the current ride and dont want it to be really rough as my car is a taxi for my kids.

On smooth roads, it feels very comfortable. When there is a transition in the road that has a fairly decent sized bump, it is very noticeable. I live in an area that has fairly well maintained roads though, in an area ridden with bumps and potholes, it may be uncomfortable I suppose. For a reference, I carry my parents and grandparents with no complaints from them. I also went with aftermarket shocks which were designed for lowering springs, but it wasn't the cheapest option for lowering our cars. There are several coilover options available for cheaper than what I paid for this setup. I got them because they have a lifetime warranty and have a proven track record.

Thank you! The car is in great condition outside but small things are starting to fail since the car has 117k now. But that is expected with any vehicle, it has been very reliable otherwise.
