Just a little update, I am loving the cup kit. I will say that the car rides a little stiffer but since I don't DD it that's not really an issue. I am still rubbing on bad overpasses and in certain corners. I don't feel like my car is THAT low (I have seen some of you guys running lower) and am only running a 255 on a 19x9.5 +22 up front. I am definitely planning on stepping up to a 265 or more on the next tire change so I am not sure how much more camber I will need. SPL front/rear arms are on my list

Oh yea, have some more pictures for you guys and am supposed to get with my friend to make a little video this week.

Greeting's Mr Terrible One - Blake,

We all appreciate the updates today. I most enjoyed your short video

done in the canyons of Southern, California........

Bro, like I mentioned previously you simply need to shave and relocate your front bumper brackets. Simple process/fix is to take 2 self tapping screws, take your wheel off, and screw then up IN FRONT of where your current screw is on the bumper bracket. Take the OEM screw and move it up to where you put the self tapping screw location. BOOM. Then take a dremel and completely dremel off literally half of the bumper bracket and all around the screw as you only need the area remaining where the screw is holding. You'll never rub again! You'll also want to just quick dremel the small plastic part that comes out of the fender liner (if it hasn't already rubbed off/through).

Thanks Lance! It would be great if I can get it to stop rubbing without buying front arms for now. I will get the car up on some stands and take a look at this over the weekend.
