    I've been thinking about switching to Airlift XLs and was wondering if anyone else has made the switch from HPS to Airlift. Really want to hear what the differences were?

    First off, awesome car

    Secondly, I can't chime in with a comparison-based opinion, but I can say that the XL's are quite comfy (MKV GTI) and go quite low.

    HPS is still pretty big in Europe, but they've lost a lot of clout here in the States.

    Actually, it's funny that you bring that up, Paul...

    Eddy (the owner of BagYard) has his old bagged impala on the HPS site and it was on a custom BagYard setup, not HPS

    yeah im happy with the HPS but to me they seem soft. I can pretty much drive aired fully up and its still smooth which you can't do on XLs
