help from stock height series 5 owners.

got a job for ya

can you measure the height from the ground to the middle of the fog light for me.

also since you're out there can you tell me what the height is from the ground to both the front and rear wheel wells. like the bottom of the lip at the center of the curve (highest point)

works better if on flat ground

the more answers the better cause I'm sure peoples are different.

thanks

no I don't even have them yet they've been sitting at a mail box 5 mins below the border for 10 days now cause a guy I know keeps saying he'll get them "tomorrow"... of course he says that every day... but ya I am curoius to how low mine is right now.

and also the lights for legal purposes to see if I pass the legal height limit in BC... but even in stock form it's to low LOL... go figure... my car even if stock is illegal here
