[QUOTE="DarkChild, post: 1063785282, member: 270"] So, I've gotten somewhat of a Union Jack done on the roof... This was done by Remus Chang at Motorsport Playground.

[IMG]https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-rEhDZ-BVSag/TsoZJ4GS5pI/AAAAAAAANls/e4fTu6d8me4/s640/photo%2525205.JPG[/IMG] The Koni FSD's were way too soft for our roads. I did not feel comfortable with them. Eventually, I decided to give them up and go back to the stock dampers with some Tein H-Tech springs. Picked them up from Exotic Mods. These springs drop the car's height about half an inch. It doesn't seem much but when the springs settle, it looks pretty low. I now occasionally scrape bumps that are too high or dips that are too steep. Looks good though...
