First shot, still have to work out a few minor details..
Impressions so far: - Ride is pretty SMOOTH at my current ride height PSI. Maybe 20% stiffer than stock - No "bouncy" ride feel. Taken a few turns at speed and haven't felt any sort of loss in handling. - Digital controller and adjustment is EASY. Really love how this kit was put together (Not fully aired out) > Next, fine tune the front to go a bit lower. Aero+wheels Last edited by Mitchsays21; 12-08-2014 at 03:06 PM.. |

That's a pretty thick sway bar. Also cool to see a 2er on bags.
You should get a roof spoiler

This is going to be amazing! With the rivet fender Liberty Walk / Rocket Bunny trend right now it's even less common to see someone taking the time to do an all metal wide body.

Oh and for new color, my vote goes to either Jerez Black or Sakhir Orange ...or techno violet.
