You motivated me to create my own thread. lol Now I just need to get better pictures so my car can look as good as yours. (first)

Today was a looong day but well worth it. Thanks ALOT to Boosthead for helping me install my springs & shocks/struts. I went from Progress springs with OEM Mz3 Shocks/Struts to a custom cut Skunk2 Springs(1.75F&R) with MS3 OEM Shocks/Struts. All I can say is what a HUGE difference this set up makes compared to what I previously had. I was able to snap a few pics with my cell phone but I will take better ones after I wash my car.

Can you guess what color I'm going to repaint my calipers..... :lol:​

Thanks. This spring I plan on getting Motegi 2.0 Traklites, so my stock rims will go bye bye.

 

[my3needsaname]

hmmm...new rims don't beat out performance mods though.
