Congrats Loco! It's not how you stand by your car, it's how you show your car

And other issues.....there needs to be a point to posting up pics, like "what you did to your G", not pics of products that we already know what they look like lol. IJS

Hahahahaha.. I know I haven't been driving man.. If I go somewhere, it's normally in the edge..

Sways feel as they should.. STIFF.. Hahahahahahaha.. I've been TRYING to make the car lean, and haven't been successful yet and I'm only on the center hole (50% stiffer than stock) I don't see how anyone would have the need to street drive the last hole (180% stiffer than stock) but they are definitely fun.. I haven't really tried to go really fast turns, I think the fastest turn I've done so far was 35 mph. I know I need new tires (camber wear) and trying to get as much life out of them as I can till my wheels show up.

Man I didn't know you lived so close to me.. Wylie's just a few streets East of Los Rios.. Once you cross Murphy Road, you're in Wylie.

Yeah... great job out there Emad. Tires make a huge difference. I learned lowering the front pressure without touching the back makes for some wicked oversteer. I seriously don't know how I didn't take out some cones at all that day.

And yep, there's four bolts holding mine on. I don't plan on modifying my existing trunk *spoiler alert* lol. But yeah, to fix it, the holes would need to be welded up and depending on if the metal warps, will need to have filler and smoothed out, then repainted. Too long of a process to get it right....
Drew - Nice to meet you lat Sat! Sorry my vision was off... That blue M3 hiding behind your car just demanded my gaze lol. It somehow made your ride invisible for a sec there. Your G looks real nice... actually the nicest G sedan I've seen.


Congrats LOCO! Nice win!
