Ordered the Addco bar last night. Gonna save up so I'm not broke as **** afterwards, but I'm gonna buy the BMR lateral arms, ZZP tubular LCAs (the revised ones are problem free as far as I've seen), and (finally) THE ****ING BILSTEINS. I think that ought to make for a fun ride

Bleeeh.. Dorman arms with the problem solving bushings. Screw the Zzp ones

Re: '04 Comp G - HEY RED, GUESS WHAT I DID

Pm sent. And I like the idea of the poly rear bushing and the solid swivel bushing. I'm still on the fence. I just don't wanna skimp out on handling, I don't care that it's slow but I want it to be a blast to drive (as much as a W body can be)
 
Re: '04 Comp G - HEY RED, GUESS WHAT I DID

Dorman new bushings would do just that for you.. There's certain parts that I wouldn't skip out on but also usually better alternatives then shelling not so much out on ZZP products. Some beefy lateral arms would do you well as well.. Yea this **** gets expensive.

Definitely. Bilsteins are gonna cost probably a quarter of what the damn car is worth

I bought some cheap little things hoping it'd be enough, but of course it wasn't, lol. I'm hoping to have the suspension buttoned up for summer driving next year, and I'll clean and undercoat everything while I have the ass end out of the car
 


Re: '04 Comp G - HEY RED, GUESS WHAT I DID

**** these ****ing spark plugs being so ****ing close to the exhaust, and **** my stupid ass for trying to change plugs on a hot ****ing motor
 


Re: '04 Comp G - HEY RED, GUESS WHAT I DID

I've gotta stop buying car parts for a while or I'm not gonna be able to afford food anymore, lol. Buuuuut... Retros are coming here soon
 
Re: '04 Comp G - HEY RED, GUESS WHAT I DID

I saw. lol I'm getting roof rails and a spoiler here soon, now I just need the hood and SE front lip+rear valance and that's it for the exterior. :cool: Other than lights(retros!), of course.
 
Re: '04 Comp G - HEY RED, GUESS WHAT I DID

Not sure on the rear valance, but the lip is getting hard to come by. About **** myself when I found mine lol. Any plans on changing the rims or no?
 


Re: '04 Comp G - HEY RED, GUESS WHAT I DID

Obviously, the 16in I have now are going to look silly once it's lowered. lol

I've looked at some GXP rims here local, but haven't really found much else that I like. most of the ones online are too expensive to ship, and the only auto stores that have wheels around here are stocked with nothing but 23in+ truck rims. lol
 
Re: '04 Comp G - HEY RED, GUESS WHAT I DID

Found my future lip at a local stealership, cost is about 532 bucks.

They can also order the rear valence for only ~475, but it will take a few weeks. AKA months. lol

And yours is gonna be fun to get paint-matched, unless you know some friends with connections. lol

My dad had to go 300 miles to find a shop that had the original cream pearl for his Harley.
