Clearance hmm? If you are talking about ground clearance, no more parking lot bump stops I only have 6 inches at lowest point, although when I drop the back end I may get an additional inch up front. If you are speaking of install clearance, I did have to do a little modification to the front steel bumper supports to make it fit, but nothing that would affect safety or integrity of the car.

Ground clearance, which answers my question. Wow, 6inches. Well, it looks great, definitely a head turner.

It looks OK. The lines around the front corners and they come to the front of the bumper just dont match up so well. But to each his own.

I would pimp it never the less.

I have to agree with the others, not nearly as smooth as it was (I have a pic of yours as 1 of my changing backgrounds - one of the shots of your car out in the desert - on my pc at work), but it's still your car, so if you like it, that's the important part!
