I was coming to this thread with the intention of posting "well that's not the direction I thought this thread was going." But Grant succeeded in taking it that direction.

[MeenZ28]

You expect anything less from me? Hahahahaha

[DanDalessandro]

As a 19 year old, I would appreciate it if we took 'that direction'

[zeeman]

WellI was hoping for more than a cartoon Jessica, but Ill take what I can get

Haha, thanks for that. I've been known to peruse at work, and I'd like to keep my job!

Looking forward to this! I considered trying something on my 4th gen, but I am too lazy and cheap. I am very interested to see how it pans out for you!

[MeenZ28]

Well the project has had it's first set back..... but at least it's by my choosing.

Was crusing threw Lateral-g.net and found a company called "Matt's Classic Bowties". Apparantly a Ridetech (among many other things) dealer. On a whim I PMed them about my set up and asked about pricing. Low and behold they came in much cheaper than Ridetech, Summit, AND most importantly Jeg's. The downside is that the compressor system has already shipped so there's not much I can do about that but since the bags and brackets haven't I canceled my order from Jeg's and am buying those threw MCB. Saved a few bucks (enough to replace the front lower control arm bushings with polys since I'm at it). So it'll be a little while longer before I have the bags themselves but I'm OK with that concidering. Would have saved another $60 on the compressor system too if I had known but oh well.

I you don't mind me asking how much did the system set you back?

[MeenZ28]

So far, my running total is $1959.00. Yah... the wife reminded me last night again that she ain't happy about that. LOL

[hoogiesngrinderz]

MCB has the full kit for on ebay

Just tell your wife that money can buy happiness. She wants you to be happy, right? Besides, it's only money

[MeenZ28]

I did see that ad before..... but that's only with the 3 gallon tank and the single compressor. I went bigger so its costing a bit more. Size matters remember.

BTW I tried that happiness line with her, it didnt fly. Lucky for me, right now she can be as mad as she wants and she cant withhold the biggest playing card she has....
. *hint* *hint* we're trying

[C2YT]

Dang man, that kit costs more than what I paid for my car! LOL
