Checkout the drop!

Ok maybe it didn't work out and it had to be removed... but it looked sweet, and gives an idea of what it'll look like on bags!

before:


after:


rubbed like a bish in just the rear, front out of the question! So it had to come out... I guess before really is after? :)

when you are ready to bag it I am game for a professional install for the price of 12 budlight bottles or a 1/5 of Captian which ever you choose, got a 3 bedroom house and the wife and I only sleep in one... I am sure Chino would want to come out too, there are plenty of places here in town if any misc pieces or parts are needed, plus the guys I learned to bags vehicles from said they would lend a hand if need be.... just tell me when you are ready

Dubs.....
Boost....
Bags.....

Interesting combo, but I think you are going to cleanly pull the whole package together with those LED windshield washers J/K... she will be killer when you are done, but you do realize to sit her all the way down on those dub your inner fenders are going to have to come out, and maybe some sheet metal modification.... you do not want those bitches to accidently air out on ya and set sheet metal on tire

I'm game for any mods required

A bagged and boosted yaris on 20's should be fun!

Just give me a few to save up, hopefully I can have it together by the end of the month!

btw, I got a case of whatever you want with your name on it for helpin out ;)

You may just be stuck then Mark.

Whenever I planned out my past suspensions, air or static, wheels play a huge part in whats gonna work, and whats not.

Granted these multipiece and billet wheels took nearley a month for each set to be made, but once built & installed from spec's given, I can tuck these 24x10's for example, while getting ever so close to laying frame right now.

link? :)

I'd say with some plastic removed here and there, everything should be gravy. If it got as low as it was in teh pic, I'd be totally happy, but of course, there is definitely room for more... the only issue is the safety aspect. If a bag blows out on the highway, I'd like to know that I can at least drive the car enough to get to the side of the road.
