Lol, well played sir.

I didnt realize it was a 2x2 square, I thought it was a 2in wide roll. But, that color or something like it, (matt purple?) would be cool.

Yeah we have people that will be there that have done spring installs, not sure if anyone has a spring compressor though so you may have to rent one from autozone.

I'm sitting on Tein S.Techs as well as Koni Yellows which makes my car even lower... She's like lowered 2 inches, handles amazing... Of course I've almost redone my whole suspension as well lol...

I'll probably be there. Need to hardwire my radar, just bought the hardwiring rx65 kit. Also need to install 8000k HIDs and new white fog lights. And can't wait to show everyone the new interior which will hopefully be done by this friday.
