Need a PIC!!!

Hey guys, I really want to see a close up pic of the HFP drop on a FA5. I have been searching and searching, even in "the what my drop will look like" thread but there are either no pics or if I find one, all the pics of HFP are far away. Can someone with the kit on an FA5 please post a close up, level, side view pic of your car, and a close up pic of the wheel gap too.

Thanks!

You won't really notice a difference in looks unless you get up REALLY close. The HFP suspension is only 0.8” – 1.0” Less than Stock Height. That's about half the length of your thumb. Nothing spectacular. Performance you will probably notice a difference, but it won't look much different.

Yeah thats what I'm afraid of however I talked to a guy who has the HFP suspension and he said he has less than a 2 finger gap, which a pretty good and I want to see if anyone has close up side pics of an HFP drop that low.
