All the parts came and I have everything installed. Worked out great. Looks so much Fing better!!!!
I made some install videos as well, but don’t know how to mesh them all together. I guess I can post them on YouTube in as multiple videos (1/4, 2/4, etc).





Of course my RSR down springs look like ****.


BendPak 7000TL worked out killer. Just put it together last night. Well worth the $$$ for ease of mind on lifting/working on your cars.


This is at the fullest extension, 24”. You can easily slide under and work on almost everything with a creeper.

Thanks! I need to move a bunch of junk out to our shop, it’s a little cluttered.


Here are a few better shots from this morning. So much better than stock! I’ll try to get some YouTube videos up with part numbers and whatnot.

Thanks a ton man, ordering this now!

Question though, why did you not go with the nut kit that is a drop down option with the stud order from Motorsport Hardware, will they not work?

Looks great man, I have the RS-R springs and based on this picture it doesn’t look that much different. If I didn’t get the Launch Edition Incognito color, I’d definitely do white with black rims. That’s what I did for our X7.

It really is a huge difference if you have the RS-R springs closing that rear fender gap is a must.
