Din 01-12-05 11:13 PM

thanks guys.


the exhuast is Mangaflow.

i still gonan try to put the car up forsale after i get the kit on.

Im gonna keep all my 97 body part jsut in case i crack the kit so i have somethign to put back on.

Sorry to say that is not a real Vertex kit, I got that VIS kit complete for 150$ from some guy locally here. I said hey what the heck 150$ i thought id jsut put it on for the hell of it and see what it looks like. I got to say though the only piece of the kit that fits right is the rear bumper, the sides needed to be streched a lil the front needs alot of work to fit correctly but thats nothing our body man cant make work. Im not really putting any money into this so im not complaing. If it doesnt work out then ill jstu put the 97 parts back on.

I think I know who you got your kit from. I think its the guy who wanted to sell me the same kit a while ago for $200 but I never called him back... Was he up on the northside? I think he was in the woodlands area or something

im not sure the guy was my cousins friend, his name was Tony. He had it on houston-imports.com for 350$.

ok just test fitted the rear, there are a few smallgaps that will need be filled with fiberglass and bondo.

din, can i ask a couple questions about your air ride?

1) how much did it cost to install, or if you installed yourself, how muchc did you purchase the parts needed for it?

2) whats the ride quality like? i heard ride on 20s is bad, and ride with air susp. is bad, so i am assuming that two bad don't make good in this case..

3) what is the top speed you can drive with the air susp.? i heard that you shouldn't go above 60...this true?

thanks

i thought i answered your questions before in PM.

1. I installed everything myself. If you have someone install lookin to spend 500$+ for a good install
2. My car rides like stock even with the air suspension and the 20s. YOu get what you pay for if your gonna get air ride get the good stuff.
3. thats wrong i drive over 60mph all the time.

the rear
