A few more changes

Made some changes to the car.

Here's a picture of the rear suspension. Can't really see the front suspension, but it's pretty much identical. All billet aluminum, and a progressive road/track SRacer spring. Yes, I realize that it's not completely seated. There's a reason. lol. I'll be fixing that with short body lowering shocks. Fully adjustable GAZ shocks. :D







Oh.. and Chase kept pushing buttons till I finally pulled the trigger. Silver stripes are gone. Now I have something well... a bit different.







Took me 2 hours to get the bonnet stripe template perfect. I took the standard stripe and changed it just slightly and made it a 4" wide stripe as opposed to the stock 3" wide ones. I think it looks better. Almost can't see them at night except under certain light, and in the day.. it looks great. haha. I'm so pleased with myself. Best part.. totally free. Thanks to a little corporate sponsorship from CMC Underground. haha

Looks great. Where did you get the bumpstops for the rear. I have the same setup, and have learned that the springs give more then the rubber donuts so I had to adjust my ride height a little bit higher to adjust for the bumps.

Bump stops are from the guys at GBCarparts.com SRacer bump stops.

Wouldn't ride round without them. I'm going to go a lot stiffer with the new dampers, too to get rid of some of the extra initial squish.
