hellz yeah man the only way to go.

i get a sense of pride in my car and i dont trust anyone touching it......

unless the alignment part.......i'll have a shop do that.

but as far as installing im doing it myself with some help from family and friends.

I like being the only one at a dealership for 4 hours at night. Empty lifts, alignment racks, air tools, heated shop . Mmmm fancy.

lolz free parts *hint hint* damn derrick i soo wanna ship my car to cali for like a month just to see the driving there and the cars.

It's not worth it. I'll send you a postcard.
