Default air runner gs...

I just installed my air runner struts and omg.. what a life/game changer.... ride is ridiculously smooth, and i save my car from dips and driveways.. love the way it looks slammed.. I can tell all you air haters that I was once not a fan of air... but now that I know what it feels like, I personally recommend this to anyone that likes to drive around low and wants to save your car from a ton of damage..

Here are some pics thanks to smitty in the meantime.. i wanted to thank everyone that helped me get to this point.. smitty, vlad, rodney, agi, chris yi at elite importz in md, and everyone else i failed to mention.. better pics will be up after wednesday night's photoshoot at elite importz.. with the rims on of course...

Yep, I love my Air Runner on my IS. What's the dampening on your front and rear?

Very nice Beez, how is the noise of the pumps, is the lifting and lowering fast and hard or nice and slow? I ask because I too am considering air but might be a progression with me Coilovers and then maybe UAS bags to replace springs.
Your car looks sweet slammed, good job

thanks guys for all the comments.. well as far as dampening, im not sure.. i messed up the top parts of the struts and cant figure out how to turn them to adjust the dampening.. do you have a manual?

lifting the car is somewhat faster than the manual air runner switches as I am using a manifold and the tank pressure is set at around 200psi.. going down, you can add slow downs to the valve manifold and it looks real nice..
