210 for ls460 projectors and 150 for the mounting!
i can but dont want to i like the drop i have alot right now. i mean slammed is nice but not good for my daily driving!!! besides im dumping the g35 wheels and i keep getting low balled :\ i have them on craigslist for a 1000 anyone who wants then for 900 in the texas area LMK or anyone out of state 900 + shipping 3% paypal fees
I know if i was going to use Double sided tape to use the automotive 3m tape and it looks like they didnt use any of the tape i supplised to them! on top of that most people who have a tte lip uses uses the adhesive that came with it or strong stuff!
the retros output is pretty nice but still needs a bit of tweaking!!
ALSO
CAN SOMEONE HELP ME OUT WITH MY SUSPENSION PROBLEM???
i got megan coilovers and the set up has 3 nuts All on a thread sleeve that twists down in the a 3" shaft. I twist the sleeve to adjust height. anyways
1st nut to set the preload with the spring attached to it
2nd nut to lock the 1st nut down
3rd nut to lock the bottom of the sleeve so it will not slide down into the shaft.
the way i was told these coilovers were set up was like the tein flex. Well yesterday i loosened the preload spring and nut down and then i twisted the sleeve out of the shaft about 1" and then i started to twist the preload spring and nut back up! I locked everything down and i measured it to make sure everything is level onboth sides and it was.
Now when i start driving i feeel more bounce and more thudding when i hit a minor bump. WTH is that i didnt even drive my car to work this morning because i was scared something felt like it was about to break. Do you think the preload spring wasnt twisted up enough to make it really stiff because this bouncing feeling and thudding wasnt happening before i touched the coils yesterday!!!!
SOMEBODY HELP!!!
O 20s on the way next week and completely shaved fenders!!
