yeah i think i will likely wind up w the jp sides as well.. theyre just flat n straight and low... but for now, that gap between the back and front side skirt fin on my VS's is literally the ONLY point i can get a jack under the car lol.
Now that ive learned what i have about airbags.. ill likely swap out my springs for bags sometime this year and go that route... until then, im just doing the front for now.. but yeah.. yal know i was never a fan of the full VS kit... was just a temporary means to an end to get the wide look... back when i modded a bit more simply lol.

yeah trying to sell them was the definition of aggravating lol...
just gna sack it up and throw em on, ive had the car apart several times lately.. so my "pita" factor for taking the car apart is waning fast.. might as well make it happen and tuck it away again for bit once i get the chrysler work done.. still a month of that happening as soon as my tech buddy gets back into town.

grr.. this car lol..
today i stripped out a Rays duraluminum lug... so Im into another 4 pack at a minimum lol..
and turns out the d2s adapter i thought was my headlight problem is in fact NOT my issue... bad ballast.. damn you ebay.
As with EVERYTHING else in life concerning this car.. but top of the line first and buy once..
Just ordered Retrofitsource Morimoto 50w High end billet case ballasts
110 bones.
aside from that.. i added something ive been flapping my gums about for a year to my aero parts order..
Is it a bit much? yeah most likely.
Do i need it ? Nope.
Is it going to take a sh#t ton of custom work to get it to fit right? Roger.
Did i do it anyways? Yep.
rough photoshop...
will wind up building a simple under car diffuser like an upside down T for it.
Anyhoo.. thats the grand out of my gddamn pocket for this week. lol. Probably wont have the gear here until end of September, and have alot in the works elsewhere, so the rear bumper will sit in the wrapper for a few months while i finish other stuff. Just thought id post up a pic of what i had in mind when i bought the parts.
