LOL....Not that I'm aware of. I wouldn't put it on if there was. This just isn't a car that would look good with 'em. I loved 'em on my Z though.

I had the VDC kit on my Z. Honestly, while it was a good kit, I always recommend the LSD kit to people, and the OP of this thread is learning exactly why. The LSD kit has one feature that makes it better than the VDC kit....a horizontal alignment pin system that keeps the door down and lined up until it's open far enough for the interior door panel to clear the A-pillar on the upswing.

Tolerances are good on both kits. They're well made, but if you can do it, get the LSD Kit. Install is not difficult, it's just time consuming. The hardest part is the cutting or rolling of the fender strength rib. The rest is "bolt on" and adjust.

thank you kelly ! that about sums it up

pricewise, I got lucky lol but realistically, I think used VDC kits go for $1000, correct me if I'm mistaken
