    Here's some pics I took today when the rain stopped. Needs more camber in the front and still sitting on fender liners. Car also needs a wash in the worst way .

    They definitely would! I prefer reversed lips but unfortunately ccw doesnt do that with the lm series faces. And with the R brakes it would be hard to fit up front.

    Thanks man, I had kw v1s before air and have always run coils. Theres a definite difference in the ride characteristics depending on how low your ride height is, but I would say most of the R's handling qualities are the same on air when daily driving. I don't track it or anything so I can't comment from that perspective. Overall, great quality product with airlift

    I did enjoy the aristos, Im happy with the lm5's, just need a little work to get the front lower. Thanks for the kind words!

    Thanks, I would say it's definitely worth it to go with air. I've put about 2k on mine since the install and have had no major issues. Btw I'm really liking the all red tails on your car.

    My last car was bagged, and I loved it. Thought I'd like being on coilovers with this car, but I'm slowly leaning towards getting a airlift set up Thanks man, I thought they'd look good on DBP

    The washer caps came with the bumper in a kit from ECS, I would try tmtuning or ECS. They may sell them separately.

    That is pretty sick .:R . I'm still debating on bags or coils if I go coils it will be the kw v3, for bags im looking into the bagyard kit. If I do bag it i think I'll have to put everything where my back seat is do to my system. So you said it rides pretty good on bags would you recomend them over the coils. Im guesing you don't have the inner fender plastic on that.

    Thanks buddy! I would say that kw v3's do not go low if thats what you're looking for. They have their advantages in terms of performance, providing you with dampening and ride height adjustment.
    Going air is pricey in comparison but I feel it's just as good for daily driving. I wouldnt go with the bagyard kit, only because of the wait time associated with the product. I would go with airlift xls and the new airlift rear setup. Thats probably the best value for your money, and it will get you lower. I do actually have the fender liners in, just modified in spots. Hope that helps

    That is indeed very low for kw's , my v1's were much higher in the rear. Im about 45 mins outside of Philly in Warrington. I would be down for a shoot when I get the car sitting how I want it to.

    The air parts were sourced from Bagriders and the management is Accuair e-level which is a height based system, rather than pressure based.
