Congratulation! love the RCF. Did you lose money when you return the rC350 after 24hrs?

I did not install myself. My friends who did though said it was pretty easy even more than my Lexus IS.

The SPC camber kit was not needed, I had on my 3IS and its the same for the RC/RCF so i figured might as well just install.

Thanks. No I was not penalized with doing the return/swap.

Congrats again on the new car bro! I look forward to seeing your build progress over time. I'm guessing you will have some VPS wheels on soon?

Loving the drop with the RSR coilovers. The car drives great with them even at this low ride height. This weekend I'll do some playing around with the damper settings and see what feels best.
