Yeah I want to drop the rear about 1.5-2 inches. I have had three different sets of front coils and two rear. So I am going to wait a little before I do anymore coil swaps. How can I make the pictures bigger

Can you give some more info on your dash? I'm going to change mine, but am still trying to work out the details. Thanks!

Dash is a custom made piece. It bolts on your plastic dash with polished allen heads. The dash was made on a lazer cutter out of stainless steel. Then it was pressed to fit the factory contours. It has three auto meter gauges in between the tach and speedo. Then you have your ignition,lights,and wiper switches. There is no cigar lighter. It has two little bowtie cutouts iwth a piece of lexan behind them with two blue leds for turn signals. then it has a little lightining bolt with a blue led for the volts. It has two a/c vents cut out like bowties with a vent design in them. They are in the factory locations. If you look closely you might be able to see them. Then I mounted the vintage a/c controls in the dash. I didnt mount the radio in the dash but you can subtitute the a/c hole for the radio if you wanted. My buddy is willing to sell these for $250 without gauges wiring etc. You will get the dash plate with the polished allens and lexan to mount the signals etc.
