    Looking for a shop to lower my f430 any suggestions on who to take it too? Any where in Orange County would work.

    Thanks

    Call me a skeptic, but no 430 owner I know would lower their car, it is already too low to begin with.

    Lucent Motors in WLA has a good rep.

    Not a skeptic, you're just passing judgement on something that doesn't require your attention...

    Ture. I know some people that have lowered too much and the car was nothing but trouble. I know of a couple who have done the Euro ride height and seem to be okay. I myself, like to see the car sit a little lower than stock. :)

    You're a skeptic. ;) I wouldn't own a F430 or 360 if I couldn't lower it. The U.S. ride height (due to our bumper regulations) makes the car look ridiculous. You can literally stick your fist between the top of the tire and fender. Euro ride height drops it about 3/4" all the way around.

    As for shops - GMG in Santa Ana or Ferrari of Orange County will also do it.

    I agree 100%. I had Lucent lower my F430 Spider to euro specs, and couldn't be happier.

    If that's Steve's 430 coupe, I've seen it in person and the drop looks killer.:cool:
