Oh alright. Well good luck with them lasting (not sarcastic)... they're pretty good shocks, just not made to handle a drop. Hopefully they will last though. If you use something with a crazy low spring rate like S-techs they'll probably be okay.

Yea that setup should be good. Make sure you hella grease the bushings during install. I didn't do it enough and now I need to go back and pull the LCAs off to lube the bushings some more so they'll stop creaking.

NIKE if the pic is decent, how about another sig? same idea just the lip installed. if ordered some ebay strut bars (mainly to use for trust idea of keeping the sub in place) and i will probably install them this weekend.

I guess you just noticed the dents now. I had them for over a reay now. Rear ended some lady tried to swirve, but scraped the corner of her bumber. Ill probably get the dents fixed in the next couple of months or so. My drivers fender looks like it has celulite (however you spell it) lol

where did you get those hx rims colored from? did you google gunmetal hx rims? cuz there are some that are that type r color, but i think they are too light. i like the color from the meshies i sent you.
