I thought about leaving the Z out, and let the insurance company pay to get the magnetic black.

Thanks bommart!

But I thought upgrading to 255/35/19 and 285/35/19 over 225/45/18 and 245/45/18 would improve my handling. I think these Kumho's are tons softer compare to my kdw2's. I'm not sure what's going on right now. I feel as if I'm not in control as much anymore, steering wheels seems very loose, or has more play then normal. corners don't seem to be as stiff anymore. maybe I need to air up my tires more cause it's been sitting around 32-33 cold. Just got my alignment but my steering wheel seems to be a little off so I think I'm going to go back dangit!!~!!!

Depending how bad it is, they might just have it PDR removed.

Have any of you guys done the hid 55w ballast conversion? I want to see the difference cause I'm thinking of doing it.

This shows the difference between the two different ballast.

I am still liking the kdw's that I got last week, they are really sticky.

Ya been through that thread. The pictures suck ***. Maybe I just need to keep the air pressure up. I do have HID's already jacob. But the 03-05 hid's suck bawls. I want better output yes, but what I really want are the 06+ headlights, true projector, true hids, better cutoff, better output. For tax return I'm thinking of getting two of the three.

Plenum Spacer
HFC/TP
06+ Tail Lights..

What would you guys do? I think I'm going to get the spacer/06 tail lights first. and later on pick up the hfc/tp with the motordyne y-pipe at the same time.

Kristi yes I know, I'm just being modest.

hmmm...when you get them, let me know. I want to compare. I got eagle eye HID's for $110 on a group buy and have 5000K bulbs. Ive always wondered if the output on projectors are REALLY that different..
