PS. Has this affected any of your handling, performance, driveability etc?
As far as handling there is a little bit more comfort (comming from sports suspension that isnt saying much). The ride quality is really nice (very smooth, the suspension absorbs alot of the bumbs and crap in the road) and the stance adjustability is top notch. Keep in mind this airbag setup isnt for racing or stiffness; its more for comfort.

How is it maintaining this color? I know black is impossible to keep clean and have no swirls. Darker colors are always harder to take care of.

Any comments on Smoky Granite Mica paint?
