Along with that, consider augmenting your purchase with a bumpsteer kit, steeda X5 ball joints (or something to address the suspension geometry), adjustable camber kit, adjustable panhard rod, adjustable upper control arm, and lower control arm relocation brackets. Finally perhaps the biggest difference if you haven't already or if you can without to much trouble, go with a wider summer tire.

Seeing those pics made me realize a few things
- I chose the right color
- I should have gone spoiler-delete
- I should have pushed for AZ more when we moved to MN from OK
Well I didn't get it washed, so pardon the dirty car. And I'm no professional photographer, so pardon the shots. Man, I'm full of excuses aren't I?
