Looks more than 2 inches. Looks good though.

Thanks, it's just a cheap Chinese one, Cost me $119 including postage. Not the best quality but its ok for me

My mate did most of the grinding as he works with those tools every day, I basically did all the easy stuff

Very nice stance, seems to have retained some of the factory rake. I'm not in the club that wants to level the car, I actually like the rake.
Yeah and you do look like you got at least 3 inches (especially the rear).

DBOR starter kit but with terraflex shocks added in as I hate the stock shocks.

I took pics of the front sway disconnects and the smashed bush so ill just speak with dbor tomorrow and hopefully have new parts to replace this week. DW is insane couldn't even drive it to glasshouse mountains to test it today I do believe no front sway bar is causing all the issues.
