Understanding the lowered concept

I decided to go down more last weekend with my new KW variant 1s. Check it.
(This is as low as I can go until I roll and pull my fenders.)










Thanks for looking, tell me what you think. Constructive criticism welcome.

Not feeling the exposed carbon. Would look a lot cleaner if you painted it. :cool:

i think do opposite of most and paint center of hood so it flows with the grill, and then leave outer parts carbon so they go with headlight lids. maybe go black housing headlights. that would look good. if you dont i may try this now haha

Camber camber camber.

I do not.

I have thought about painting the hood a lot actually, or swapping for stock.

Chris, I Plan on getting my headlights painted black when Matt Retro-fits them.

As for the lower it and camber posts, I'm at 23" FTGH. I will roll and pull and probably go down another half an inch then see if I want camber.

I'm loving this constructive feedback. Keep it coming everyone!

I disagree. I think carbon fiber in it's own right is beautiful and I would never want to see it painted unless it was poorly woven or had a defect. But the good looks flawless. Show it off! Leave it exposed!

Yeah I'd lose the eye lids too. Painting the headlight housings black would def be nice as well.

I also don't think you need camber as much as you need to roll and pull.

Roll and pull te arches and be done with it, maybe just camber bolts in the rear.

I love the look of good quality carbon! Just take off the eye lids it messes with the cars lines a bit IMO

I'd say paint the wheels graphite grey to match the bonnet but that's just me

I think your car looks pretty good, and that front is nice and mean.. maybe shoot for some slightly bigger aggresive tires? Like 21545s or something? im sure with camber, roll and a tad of pull that they will clear. just my 2 cents.

what headlights are you looking for?

do metallic black or a dark gun metal in headlights. if your still looking for opinions. posiibly add projectors?
