After debating going with BOI or UPR I went with UPR as I forgot I had a 50$ gift card from my new phone (rebate). The price was about the same at this point from "out of pocket" more or less.

100% glad I went with UPR they look great. The welds are all perfect and powdercoated silver-ish. The whole package was 16lbs too so I bet they are lighter than the stockers or the steel BOI req. tube ones. Service was GREAT and shipping was within reason (didnt think I would get them until tomarrow actually).

Just wish I didnt have to run arount tonight and work late tomarrow...thurs at the earliest to get them on.

I will grab my mom's digi-cam before I do the install...I have to go clean her gutters out this weekend.

Digi-cam of my own is on the list for this year of stuff to buy.

sorry no pics....been rainings its butt off so I just went and installed them as I would not be getting over to moms house for the gutters any time soon.

I will say they were 100x's easier to install than the SSM bars. It took me prob. 4hrs to install both SSM bars. I installed all 4 UPR CA's in 2hrs or so taking my time and they do look GOOD under there looking at them.

I weighed the stock lowers and the UPR lowers and the stock lowers were 4 or so lbs, with the UPR lowers around 3lbs. The uppers were noticably lighter too. I fig. I saved 3lbs or so over stock. I need to weight my SSM bars I bet those things weigh close to 10lbs...HEAVY things.

I think for my goals/needs/use of the car the UPR CA's will be much better than the SSM bars. Dont get me wrong I think the SSM bars are a quality part, just that they need uppers to go along with them and are fairly aggressive/more for the track.
