Well i'd just gotten some surgery done on my right hand (sliced a finger damn near off) so i called in some help from my buddy Steve (SteveSolara) to help me drop the living hell out of my Avalon. Basically my car started like this:

And the semi-finished product( rears aren't in needed some clarification on some things probably going in Saturday).

I've already seen eyebrows raise just with the front dumped. Getting Tein S-tech rears saturday and gonna be alot happier. Dropzone rears aint helping me. Gotta get some foglights/ HID's and i'm done with this car. oh and about this picture: It wasn't taken on a DSLR camera. it was taken on a starter SLR camera w/ a tripod. Came out great.

Yep cause it's still just as comfortable as before. I think if I had put the dropzones in it'd be a different story. They would've lowered the rear another half inch. I'm happy with it like this. I've got a one finger gap in front and 2 in back. I took some pictures tonight and I'll upload them tomorrow.

Great write up buddy, Glad i could help somehow, I was sad i couldn't help you finish the rear but the car came out looking WAY better than the ridiculous factory height. Great photos too :)
