With a resigned sigh Pully replies, "Yep, its time for Ultralows."

I think that is merely an unflattering photo angle (still looks fine to me!) ;)

Mine still looks "high" from certain angles. Good luck with the ultra lows though, we'll need pix of course ;)

Why not splash out & invest in some airbags? : : :

Why not fit the wheels from your rollerblades, that'll get you low enough.

Just get your springs heated and reset to a lower hight. The supension centre does to for $60 (last time I checked) a spring and they take them out and reinstall them

what you need are mood springs. That adjust height depending on how cool you wish to appear infront of underage waitresses.

Nah, Pully's got the Pimp Bug, and by that I don't mean something you catch from a street corner...

Go the ultralows mate! How about some koni adjustables or similar to go with them? <-- EDIT: I just read your sig, don't mind me... :
