Front measures 26" from the ground to the top of the wheel well, and the the back is 27.5"

Suspension is next - maybe the Pettit Stage II... but the bottom of the front lip already hits the curb when I back out of the driveway.

I was thinking the same thing lol just because when i took my wheels to get the tires mounted i had to fit them inside all 4! I had to drive 50 miles with the hatch half open tied with speaker wire.

OH and its a very ugly hatch!

Please tell me you're going to paint the light housings black, regardless of bumper color. They look much better that way imo.

The lights are from 996. I bought a full front couple month ago. I'm planning making this kit to fit on GT AD II's sides.
