:lol:

There certainly is. When you have a horribly inconsistent gap between the tyre and guard (as in your chop) the car is way too low.

There is tastefully low then there is fully-sik-brew-hella-skraping low

I must be looking at something different to you guys?... I don't see a "horribly inconsistent" tyre gap? Sure it doesn't line up 100%... but its a chop! :roll:

And thats hardly "fully-sik-hektic" low... Guards sitting just on the top of the tyre is fairly tame! especially for a photoshop! :?:
