you can fix it by cutting the headlight section off and regraphing it, or just try to adjust it, or just ignore it.

Easiest Way around the gap's is to mold the kit on, That's what i've done. . .(**still not done, lol 6 months and waiting**doing it myself tho*) But then again a kid in my neighbor got the front and the fit wasn't far off at all. . .the passenger side head light was off a little but the weather seal covered it up, But he doesn't know what company it came from because it was a gift from his parent's, But i am dropping the combat front for the c-1 rep.

Einhander - Who did you get your combat from? Do you know how much lower the combat is in the front than the stock bumper? It looks lower but I can't really tell how much lower from pics.

its almost the same height as stock, i measured it with all stock suspension and had 8 inches of pure ground clearance. -------------------- Believer, you'll leave her, in leaving them all No but I don't buy it Like anything you do, as anyone you are Cause I'm...

really. I was hoping it would be a little lower, but i guess it's better off being close to stock for daily driving. I have 1.75" drop Intrax springs in the front now, although I wish it was about an inch lower.

It's about 1 inche lower than stock at the fender well, and the two vents in the front sit a little lower than that maybe 1.25 inches, But i am going by the distance at fender well, to bottom of combat bumper, height i don't know exactly because my car is dropped 2.5 inches.
Oh and i got it from k2 there is a kid on my street that got the kit from andys and the fit is almost perfect though. A little off on the passneger side, just mounting issues really. This post has been edited by Einhander: Dec 31, 2003 - 4:52 PM |

Thas good to hear that Andy's should be a close fit. I'll be putting it on myself, so the less work the better. What coilovers are you using for the 2.5"?

they are #1's, you can get them at nopi.com. But i don't recommend anything below a 2 inch drop with the combat front i am riding on 17 inch rims and still scrap ever so often. i think i might have a pic of it dropped 2.75 front from the front, if i can find it i'll post it . . . . It's low, very. The profile pic's are at 2 inch.
