We are all use to snow, but... So when is spring?

I did not know that those southern states saw snow... Crazy weather some are having. This is a snow coverage map from yesterday.

Got slush all over it this morning. When I got home I put a couple toolboxes and a sandbag in the trunk to try to tame the fishtailing on slick roads.

I installed new take-off dash trim I purchased on eBay to replace the bright "brushed" aluminum trim that came in my 401a. I like the "carbon fiber" look better, though I do wish the two smaller lower trim pieces weren't black plastic, but I don't see them much anyway.

Took advantage of the 15% off sale with free shipping and ordered some more BMR goodies for it.
New TCA032 rear lower control arms, the SP071 front GT500 springs, and the SP012 rear springs.
Slowly but surely all the Steeda stuff is coming off the car.

Threw some recyclable material away in the garage. Was checking over the Green Machine while in there and just thinking about the warm weather again.
Still can't believe I own this awesome car.

The combo of the '05-'10 front Konis on my Whippled '13 has the front end sitting a bit too low for my taste.
BMR has seriously impressed me with every piece I've bought from them and since they sell the front and rear springs separately, I was able to customize the setup for my combo.
The GT500 front springs should deal with the extra weight of the blower much better since the GT500 is heavier in the front-end.
The LCAs I'm mostly replacing because I've wanted the BMR ones for some time, I should've never sold the ones I originally had. Plus the Steeda ones I bought used, they don't have the Steeda branding on them, it's kinda weird, the bushings are starting to rust and wear weird, and the aluminum spacers they use are looking kinda screwed up.
BMR doesn't use spacers if I remember right.

On a side note, I may have a set of Steeda Sport springs for sale soon
Nothing wrong with them, just not ideal for my application, for my taste.

Thanks, they did a great job with the paint!
It looks really good under the hood, but it's gonna make us spend more money on a bunch more stuff, cuz now I see the naked shock towers and no white on the right side of the bay or in the front ... guess more stuff is coming, lol





Yesterday I received my new BMR rear lower control arms and a few days ago I got the new BMR springs.
Can't wait to install it all on the car!

When I glanced at the pic before reading I thought it was a lid for a toilet tank.

Nothing against Steeda Products But BMR products for the same items are the real deal. Built to last and outstanding workmanship. Sure they weigh a tad more but then again they are almost bulletproof. If you are racing and want to lose the most weight then go for the Steeda. If you want something a little more durable with thicker material.......... well you know.
