It didnt line up properly, my bumper was repaired once, the bondo took it out of place.

Hopefully the oem bumper will be mint with lining up with the speed bumper.

The problem with the speed bumper is that it uses adhesives to stay together on the top portion.

So who wants to bring back my wheels? Incentive? You can use my Best Buy discount to get yourself a radar detector, or be nice and bring em back for me.

yeah johnny. your in. we dub thee canadian....ish. lol.

seriously, are there like no active 8s in your area at all? when i came up with the idea of meeting up with other 8 owners across the way i figured we would see quite a bit of interest.

I really cant wait for this cruise. I got half my suspension installed tonight and hopefully doing the rear tomorrow night. Man was it sketchy with the back end riding so high and the front slammed. lol. way more tail happy than before...like dangerously tail happy in the rain. thats not to say im not smiling still, i just hope when i put the rear springs and struts on it will be back the way it was, just tighter. BTW, the front springs suspension is very very easy to take apart. i had the struts out in like 10 mins. the only thing that took time was compressing the springs and taking that all apart as our spring compressor at work sucks sweaty donkey *****.

jay, they are swift springs. huge improvement over the stock GS crap with a blown shock. lol. and of course ill be helping with the install meet man. air tools arent required at all man. they speed it up a bit, but really not that necessary. hell, i could bring all the tools needed and carry them in with one hand. you will need a spring compressor though. I dont care what anyone says, its not safe to take a loaded spring apart without one and i wont take part if there isnt going to be a good spring compressor there.

Johnny, i have no one in my city either. i had to reach out. im like 1.5hrs away from all the action really, but i make do. good thing i love driving my 8. haha. looking forward to meeting you and dubbing you a canadian in person. haha.

ZmFnZm, you have no idea. i have a really big hang up about spring compressors. where i worked a few years ago i watched a set of crappy spring compressors slip on the spring and come together, crushing the technicians hand. These springs have serious power and they dont take kindly to fooling around. when i think of all the stupid things i've done to compress springs and how dangerous it all was....never again.

The accessport doesn't work that way. It only works on one car at a time until it's uninstalled from that car.
