paint is at the bottom of the list... thats for when the car is mechanically FINISHED... as far as the build goes. I do like this color alot.. but i might be going black. and never going back. (lol)

What was the issue with those springs if you don't mind me asking? I've got a set on my car and I've yet to use them...

the springs are fucking Shitty. they are so soft its rediculous.

The shocks are tokico illuminas which are complete shit as well.

Horrible combination.. i could bottom out the car with one hand, pressing down.
