stupid stop sign was IN the parking spot, I was way to the left of the spot and when I didn't see the pole in in the mirror I figured it was off to the right of my car, turns out it was perfectly in my blind spot. FML.

All those prices are "before tax, and shipping". It doesnt really seem like a MEGA sale to me... 260 for ings front lip seems to be the norm.

what sizes did you go with mayne? Good to hear she's back on the road again.. Get all the suede parts back in? So was it the grounding points that had you blowing coilpacks??

Yeah the shipping quote I got for a Top Speed front was outrageous. I think it was $175 shipping for the front bumper, I just got done shipping 2 full tower Klipsch speakers for $33/each with $500 insurance where the box would be more than big enough to fit a bumper.

I'm not trying to be a cheapskate but c'mon, $175 to ship a bumper?

25mm all around...not clue what the cause is...that is something you probably cant find out...its currently running fine right now...so we will have to see.

yes the suede parts are in with the exception of the little small addon parts.

still have popping in the rear coming from the new coilover install..cant figure out what it is but im checking this afternoon when I install the Motordyne sways on the car.

keep f*king with it chris...coilovers are fuggers if not set "just right" - might have to mess with springload and measure, measure, and measure again.. I love having them but its tedious..

The kit I want to get for my LS430 is $2700 plus shipping from Japan, which I don't want to even imagine. Be glad you have kits available for so cheap.
