NO blowers. No extra front end weight.

It's ok. I have the rear end weight in that huge speaker box with the heavy JL 10" and three amps to balance it out.

Did you get your windshield replaced? Safelite came out yesterday, but brought a V6 one. They'll have to come back next week.

Yep. Easy swap. Nice to have a perfectly clear windshield again! lol

It wasn't identical to the original. No biggie...but the upper center dots were just that....dots. Not solid. But, imo, it looks better.

Also did a pretty sweet install with Pete out at the Pedders shop on Thursday with the supercars. I told Pete the real test was going to be the drive to and from my work. THE ROAD SUCKS.... Drove it a few times and now yessir....supercars make a difference FOR SURE.

It's hard to explain. But yes....smooooother ride. The car hits and takes the bumps, but just doesn't hit those bumps as hard as before. I still have to play with the settings a bit...full soft, full hard, back and forth. But the difference is night and day. And if I can install them myself, ANYONE CAN!!!

LOVE the supercars!!!

And thank you, Pete!

Where did you get all that done? My front bumper needs a "makeover" from all the nicks over these 4 years.

For something like that, I'd suggest going to Jack's Paint Place out in Converse. Ask for John when you call and tell him I sent you over there...SACC, etc. John paints all of our cars and parts. He's damn good at his work.

But if you are interested in the opticoat, you need to talk to Jay Oliva from Jay's Detail off Nakoma and 281. LMK if you want his #.

Yep. They do excellent work. As soon as we get the Tahoe, we'll be heading to Jays for Opticoat. ...and the only place we go for paint/bodywork is Jacks.

Now...if I can only hook up with Lupe for that new center console...
