i still wanna check if i can find a better quote on the install. i spent $335 for Swift springs and $161 for SPC rear camber kits, so $496 for everything. i cant believe the install will cost just as much at $420.

heres a link on what i was looking at before I pulled the trigger on the Invidia Gemini Exhaust.

i love how it sounds under throttle. imo just have to give it time to burn out all the residue inside.

Yeah labor fees are pretty ridiculous .. or you can work on it yourself!
I'm thinking about getting the ARK Grip, really like the look and sound. It's really hard to compare the sound clips of different exhaust systems because the device they use to record and where they position the camera can make it sound a lot different.

$420 sounds about right. We charge a bit more here for a lowering spring install, but it includes the alignment. If you've got a floor jack, jack stands, and basic hand tools you can tackle the job yourself.

Either way, make sure you get an alignment.

the install quote is with alignment also. i have to have a shop install the springs. no tools in my garage to do the install on my own.

Agreed!

The stance looks great.

I've got an install scheduled for the Tanabe's and spacers (15mm front and 20mm rear) scheduled for the week of Dec 12. Your pictures just affirmed my choice.
