i love the coilovers. stiff on bumpy surfaces like its suppose to be, but very smooth on flat grounds. i had the dampening at 10 rear 12 front (with 30 being the smoothest) and the cornering ability is amazing. much easier to take ramps fast. haha. i remember when the car felt like it was tipping over, now it's just planted! i didn't lower the car to anywhere near bryan's settings either. I left it on factory specs which was 1.7 front 1.3 rear drop. i will take pictures of the car soon. great investment and it only took me... 6 hours to install.

I did all 4 recently. The top lights are 5 or 6 LED 194'S and the bottoms are the HEON XENON match.

Wing: Do you want the powder coated ones or the normal sytle I have on mine? Bryan is just really picky about keeping his car all black and red.
But yeah, either the Hymee (powder coated) or the RB are already cut to fit. They're pretty easy to install, just gotta take the bumper off. (which is super easy and I can do in under 10 minutes)

jedi: thx 4 the info. i seen both grill sets but didnt kno if the hymee was precut. I like the hymee better than the racing beat, thing is tho i wish is wasnt a square pattern. im thinking of maybe saving some money there and just make my own

So did we manage to blow up Rasp's car yet? Wish I could have gone to help but I got stuck doing stuff all day.

Damn! I have been very busy and haven't had much time to surf the forums. Would have loved to stop by. Perhaps at the next meet I can drive your car rasp to feel the difference. If it's significantly noticable form the stock ones then I may get some as well.

I fisnished the spring install about a hour after Bryan left. For whatever reason the car didn't drop at all. These are used springs so I wouldn't think they would need to settle very much.
