    Okay so, I FINALLY had my Icon lift installed today (Happy Cinco De Mayo)!!! And, thanks to Downsouth Motorsports' front coilover giveaway, I paid about $1700 less in parts :D

    I started this thread before uploading pics because im so excited that its finally DONE...pics coming within the 1/2hr :p

    This entire process has literally been a 12 month thought/pondering process!! lmao
