Default Suicide rear and front and lowering!

Was plannin on doing both front and rear suicide conversions for my doors plus shaved and my trunk and do the flip flop mod. Also what kind of springs would be good for wider 15 inch tires and stock rims . I want a sweet stance. thought about going with mopar springs. What do you guys think.

i do not know how the front and rear doors would look like suicided together, i know the rears look sweet there is one 2nd gen neon on cardomain.com, you could check out!!! as for the springs i do not know about mopar springs but i know that eibach springs are one of the best on the market i would go with the prokit series springs that drop the car about 1.5 inches, and the sportlines drop it about 2.5 inches but i heir they are hard on the struts..... as for the trunk lid shave, they look sweet, i am having mine done as we speak, but i am also doing the third brake light to, just to give it real smooth look!! i say go for it the shaved look is sweet and the suicide doors are really nice looking look on cardomain and i think you will agree

Don't think you'd have enough room to mount the suicide hinges for the front doors. Putting them in for the rear doors is tricky enough, not sure if doing both will be possible and still have the car usable.

Can look at the doors on mine as well as the ones above.




Should go with the pro kit with the 1.5 inch drop. Should look quite sweet.

I followed your link and that is one FANTASTIC looking Neon, for sure! It's as good as anything I've seen on "Pimp My Ride". His factory wheels are the same ones I have. I think the car looks better with the factory wheels than the ones he replaced them with and a 4 lb. tank behind the driver's seat is rather absurd, but I don't expect a voice of reason to influence anyone who spends twice what a 3 year old car is worth to customize it!

Arrive alive,

Bill
