bonvo Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 trust me i really want to, not something i have ever done befor but i still want to. But i think i should get her on the road first. x2 get it deiving first the only reason i did mine when i did was because the suspention was already apart as for how to do it the cheap wat is to cut the springs Quote Link to comment
INDY510 Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 510s are more fun when you can go over speedbumps.... If you lower them more than an inch you start getting bumpsteer problems,,, ,, I had alot more fun driving my 510 before it was lowered....... now the exaust scrapes on everything, and I dodge potholes and reflectors. Drive it hard before you lower it....... then compare that to the shitty ride with cut springs Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 I like the bolts threw the hood :lol: Quote Link to comment

The Dat-side Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 If you want to do it cheap figure out which spring here would be best for you and cut it to your height. http://www.the510realm.com/tech/suspension/frontspringguide/ Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 Man that hood is ghetto and lazy better your car then mine . You should thread the part that sticks out so you can putt flags on it Quote Link to comment

nukeday Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 You and Jas planning on going to Canby? Taking the 'goon? Or are you tying to have this one ready, or both? PM and LMK. As for the hood, functional is functional. You've seen my 521, and my 510, so I'm in no position to judge. I'm undecided on how it looks, but at least you can cover those SU's now. :D Quote Link to comment
Jassifrass Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Man that hood is ghetto and lazy better your car then mine . You should thread the part that sticks out so you can putt flags on it Its not that bad, the bolts snapped and wouldnt come back out, had to do something and we dont have a welder.
