Not my style but at least you did it the right way.

 

[Canadan]

I like the looks of it without the moulding and black tape stuff. hows it ride?

 

[centason]

that's low.

Yeah, what they said...
Good body color for this treatment, too.

As far as the ride height...at least it's pretty level, which I like.

 

[t8fanning]

I really like the paint and trim delete, but you need some new wheels STAT.

 

[MadDog_945]

#static you will learn your lesson later

 

[240240]

14" wheels for the fail. Upgrade to some nice 15" oem

 

[Coupid]

A local! Can't wait to see it around the area

 

[edgar333]

It rides ok for the most part, the front is firm but not harsh. The rear springs maybe a little too soft..I'm saving up to get at least 16' ,

@coupid, I actually work in Goleta, so you just might see me around

 

[Owsley]

I don't think 240's look good that low. The wheels don't line up with the fender wells, but if you like it, more power to you.

 

[VQ]

Can't call it stanced. Would not disagree that it's lowered though...

 

[aprophet13]

Love it! Pretty frickin' low and on any other wheels it'll put the swag in swagon

 

[MikeJr.]

Mine's that low

I like it. It just needs some good wheels and you're good to go.

 

[DanMarino]

I think it's a good looking wagon and will look great with some new wheels.
I'm looking forward to getting another wagon in a few years.

Every car has a stance. Homie never referred to his car as "stanced" in that way though.

OP, which van shocks did you use the back, factory ones or ones made for lowered ones?

 

[edgar333]

Factory front Chevy g30 van shocks.

 

[quillc]

Would be dragging the flaps if they were installed.

 

[VeroDubs]

I think the ride height looks great... but I love low cars. I would say your very near the ride height of mine and mine is daily driven. (Until I blew the trans a bit ago, need to get the t5 swap done)

The ride is not optimal, but it is far from terrible. We would cruise all over Florida in it. I have dumped way more money into my slammed VW's suspension to have a ride not near as comfortable, but I could take corners at 45 haha.

Looks good. What are your plans for wheels?
