Yeah, I wanted to keep the doors lighter so I can hopefully avoid a ticket, we'll see how it works out.

The springs ride great. They seem a little less stiff initially, than the Brembo springs...I'm eventually going to get some shocks/struts too, haven't decided what brand yet though.

Amazing! I love how Kona looks when the sun hits it, like in the first photo.

Few more, since it was sunny today. Also added the GT500 rear valence and splash guards.

Looks good. I just had the P springs installed myself and to add further I find them less bouncy than the stock brembo setup.

Nice, nice, nice, man.
I like the tint.
38 and 20, huh?
I'll have to remember that. Looks good.
Tinted the front windows in my wife's Escape to match the stock rears.
Don't remember the %. Looked cool, but too dark.
At night it was a PITA.

How do you like your GT500 exhaust?
