How do you get rid of the stupid GAP?

the HUGE front GAP [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG] between the wheel and the fender is just too much...
but i dont want to spend so much money on coilovers... right now i have
sprint that lowers it 2.25" ... do u think i should cut it? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG] or any other
springs that is lower than Sprint?
thanks guys

damn what size tires do you have? 205-35-17? those damn things look tiny... i would think its no bigger then 205-40-17 tho... thats why you have such a big fender gap even with a 2.25" drop. i would suggest get new tires but those cost more then coilovers so... live with it??? but keep in mind, if you lower it even more your going to have problems with ride height since those tires are so small. i have the opposite problem, too little fender gap but not low enough... well thats if i even lowered my car more.
