I'm sure others have done this before but I just noticed you replaced your middle air vent with aftermarket gauges. Perfect idea. Looks great too. Can't wait to hear the results after that FAST upgrade.

With the functioning side vents on it too . Thanks bro ! The fast is a bit intimidating at first but I enjoy electrical type stuff so it should be fun even though it's mostly a plug and play deal .

@hoopty5.0 What coil over rate you running on your car ? I know you have the upr kit as well with 17x8 right ? Any rubbing issues and how noisy are they ? I want to pull the trigger just unsure . Sharad reccomened 12-250 for me for a good all around deal seeing as it's mainly a street car

I went with 150# hypercoils from maximum Motorsports. They ride very nice on the street. Can't say they are for serious handling though but for everyday use they work well. 250's seem pretty stiff to me(unless you look to carve corners)

Looking for something that will transfer some weight at the track but won't ride like a 78 Seville . Some kind of balance . But it being mainly a street car
I know there's gonna be some sacrificing

I would go with 150-175# springs. Either will ride nice and do what you want.

Car is home safe and sound . What a diff . I have driven cars with connectors but never my own back to back not having them then being installed . I love it and he did such a nice job .

The attach to the existing front rail portion and run all the way back to the torque boxes . You don't even no they are there worth every penny .
