I am quite curious to know how these cars are dumped so low on their arses. Looks bloody awesome I must admit, and Im guessing it involves custom springs, adjustable shocks??? Im not too sure!? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I think the size of the rims helps with the lowered look there, because really the skirts are still sitting a fair bit off the ground. You can just take your springs out Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

hmm.. no lines.. might give it a go.. i got my other car going for paint this week (was ment to be last thursday but got delayed).. might give it a try and fill all the lines before i spray the bars and side moulds.. Anyone got pics of the pink/purple one? he seems to have squared his lines off more than the silver one... As for the lowness.. short springs and good shocks.. also the rim/tyre sizes would play a big part in it.. The ride would be hard as hell in them though...

I liked the look of it until I saw the front and that huge cooler, now that's ugly IMO!

Yeah looks like Super Lows (minimum legal hieght). The huge rims also give it an effect of being dumped on its arse. Must admit looks mean, however pretty crap for diving on Australian (especially suburban) roads. You would have to crall over a bump, it would be farked on a rippled tight corner.
