Re: Project lowrider
I'm not getting the point of this. Why take a nice BX, mess with it so it's possibly dangerous, and then batter the hell out of the bottom of it?

It is not that we hate the car, more that we hate the way the safety aspect is taking a back seat. If it could be done safely, you would not get so much criticism.

Re: Project lowrider
Sorry if i've missed it, but if you lower the suspension using the interior control does it raise the wheels off the ground?
