he will be here later to play salesman

...better not sell it though. I want an OSV kit..seeing as I hit a racoon the size of a moose on the way home a while back it might become feesable when I sell my bike or whatever the hell I'm doing..

BoarderTy · 05-05-2011, 12:35 AM

OSV kits are alot of work tho. theres alot you gotta do to make em fit.
...so ive heard anyway.

The 3m is like what 03sleeper has on his tail lights but its like a rubber tint
that can be applied and removed as many times as you like. iv used it before on other cars its very cheap but reliable.

I want to have fun pretty much. summer is here so planning on lowering the car myself then lifting it back to stock for winter.

OK that's not worth the effort. Don't lower it if your going to do that

But for a fun car, you seem to be heading in the right direction

very much agreed.
Ik alot of ppl when they hear lowered they think touching the ground. but it doesnt have to be. my car makes it thru the snow and ice and winter in general just fine. just make sure those snowbanks dont leap out at ya

I can deliver it to you!!

Ttop191 · 05-05-2011, 08:51 AM

it's not that ridiculous to raise the car back to stock, I know quite a few people here that do it on their wrx's just keep two sets of struts and springs...its literally 5 bolts per corner after you take the wheels off...Big deal!
