Saving this picture so I can fantasize about what my car will look like witt that badass hood.

I just need to choose a side skirt now. Probably go with the ZL1 and have them painted completely. I looked for a factory set but they are hard to find. I did find one set but shipping is so high right now it wasn’t worth it. As for the good go ahead and get one. You won’t regret it.

A bit off topic but...

How you liking that BMR 4-point? What other suspension upgrades do you have?

I like it until I work on something under the hood then I hate it. I can tell a difference with it on though. It hangs curves while feeling more stable than it used to. As for suspension all I have is lowering springs. It’s about time to start replacing bushings and stuff so I have been researching what I want to go with. What about you? Got any input on suspension as I know you have done some.

I went with the Hotchkis set up including springs, end links, sways, chassis brace. I'm still stock shocks/struts... may either go Koni or 1LE. BMR front and rear suspension bushing sets.

I was curious about what you felt with the BMR 4-point and you satisfied my curiosity perfectly with your response.

I highly recommend getting the rest of the Hotchkis set for our rides. You already have lowering springs. The sway bars are thicker than ZL1 and 1LE. The end links are heavy duty. The Max Chassis Brace is a MUST have for our rides.

BMR has great stuff for sure, and so does Hotchkis.

Edit: Wow man, that was great. I just can't get over how well the car came out after all that work you did. Simply amazing.

Late reply but thank you. It was a task but well worth it in the end results.

Almost black from 400 miles? Doesn’t quite seem normal, imho.

Thank you sir... loving the ride!!

i rekon you'll have that beauty forever spec. i cant imagine you ever selling or trading her in..do you ever get that itch to move on something else. i know how it is though.these cars are so damn good it's a tough call to find anything better..and remeber newer is not always better. history has taught us that many times over in the motoring world.
because of the ease of repairing our cars and the relative simplicity of them make them sensational cars to own. nothing more satisfying than doing your own manintenance and tuning on your own car
