Suspension Uprgrade

I have ordered a start of my suspension upgrades. I worked with Apex Chase and I have to give him a plug. He worked with me through 5 or 6 different scenerios on suspension componenets. He recommended different parts and explained why I should go that route etc etc. The suspension I ordered is BMR with front and rear sways and end links, trailing arms, toe rods, and complete pro version rear cradle bushing kit, and rear suspension bushings. Front end bushing are next and then coilovers, I chose not go with just lowering springs dont want to compromise the ride quality. I want to do this progressively so I will be able to see and feel the difference. Let you all know how it goes.

Thanks for your order and the plug. Can't wait to read your feedback as it all comes together. You are not going to believe how much more fun your car is about to become.

Yes Apex Chase is the man. I wasn't an easy sell and he answered every question and scenerio with me. Suspension is quite a complicated process with these cars as I have come to find out. One modification must compliment the other and Chase explained the reasons. I have high confidence in BMR products after going through my due diligence. I will post up results when I'm installed and running, and the snow is gone.

Oh yeah, don't jump the gun. Snowy roads and testing your new suspension mods doesn't mix.
