aw, thats mean Vric.


those revell civics are a pain to drop IMO. for the rear end, what your going to want to do is sand the suspension piece, the one with the arms on it, well the center piece has a male connector style piece and you will cut that off then sand down that middle piece, thus lowering the whole rear end. be carefull, too low and you will rub in the wheelwells.

the front is a little harder. but you will sand the piece that would be considered the same but in the front down just like the back.
you will need to modify the shocks/springs to your new ride height next.

they are hard to drop. i only droped the back end on mine, didn't want to mess with the front. I just put it together but it look pretty good.
