Got bored and took a few more photos tonight.

Added my first "ricer" mod  Side mount license plate. Made by GrimmSpeed. I like it!





Need to wash behind where the plate was, and eventually get a front plate delete...

Thank you. I try to make decent notes each time I adjust the coilovers. For my current setting I measured the locking ring gap, but forgot to measure the fender-hub gap. For locking ring gap I am measuring the the distance of threaded strut that is available for adjustment (ie. the rears could only go 1/4" lower and then they'd be maxed out).  

Front:
Locking Ring Gap: 1.0"
Fender-Hub Gap: 12.?"

Rear:
Locking Ring Gap: 0.25"
Fender-Hub Gap: 12.?"

Based on the notes I had from my previous adjustment, the fender hub gap should be somewhere around 12.25", but I forgot to measure for sure. I think a 13" fender hub gap is a pretty good place to start. It leaves the top of the tirebasically even with the fender.

Yes, the undertray keeps popping out right there, but not on the other side. I know I am missing the splash guard clips that go in either fender (for easier removal), but the piece that is sticking out is a completely separate thing. Maybe the same clip goes through both pieces? I'll probably try to remedy that issue this weekend...
