I'm just trying to steal freebies and maybe make my car half as cool... varis kit is so sweet... which is probably why I like the new nismo kit (since it steals the lip thing from varis)

The fins on that one are at least smallish, but I'd prefer that design without the fins at all. Or perhaps just a slightly raised position where the fins would otherwise be.

I don't need the "downforce" and am a fan of subtle.

Certainly welcome suggestions along those lines.
Otherwose can always tape mine off and spray it easily enough

If it were older I would. Much as I can't stand all the factory orange peel and thin a*s paint, I just can't justify shooting a car that's only a couple months old!

Tempting as it may be..

I don't doubt it.

Was actually planning on having that conversation with AAM, but am a huge Stillen fan since he first got his start. And support his products wholeheartedly - talking to them about 9psi SC right now actually. My own company is sponsoring my car for next year and want to bring in one other 'major' sponsor. I'd actually be pretty excited if it were able to be them. But since you just did it should probably give it a little time before broaching that topic :)

AAM is pretty damn easy to get sponsorship from

I know, but given that I assume what their sponsorship covers isn't all that much.

Figured.

That's not sponsorship, that's a sale price.

Is that off their MSRP price? If so, that's like nothing. Their products never retail for full MSRP.

Even when they have sales and discount codes out there it is off of full MSRP so I'd be surprised if this was any different.

The quote they gave me for resonated test pipes was $343.99

I think the Swifts probably would be. That was my original plan, and in hindsight perhaps I should have. That said I love being able to tune the damping and tweak the ride height as I see fit. It would be hard to lose that ability.

I've looked at countless pics of Zed's with Swifts and there seems to be a variety of different ride heights, even though all the same springs. Some haven't settled I'm sure, and remember someone (think it was cooltoy - who really knows his stuff) mention that once Swifts settle you can add another .2 drop on to the numbers.

Those wheels bring the hotness! :)

...all true, my swift springs have settled nicely and I think the drop is close to perfect in the sense of... if I went any lower(which I would like sure) the streets in my area would have a field day beating up on my car

Solid find. Can you share the link? I, and I'm sure many others, might want to invest. :)
