Wish I could be there to see the new mod. I have an appointment in Argentina so I'll miss this one.

I would like to guess. It is a trailer hitch, and he is towing a mobile Korean BBQ. Calbi and Kim Chi for everyone!

MJ, looking fwd to meeting you. Pardon me if the smoke and mirrors on your next mod is a bit flat on me. Just let the cat out of the bag. I mean, if it was a Kleeman compressor, that would be worth teasing.

Thumbs up Rear Camber Kit Installed

Bought them from K1 and installed by Jose.
Install was easier than K-MAC's.
No more negative camber! (not the fronts...)

Its just a couple of bolts right? How low are you, I didnt think that you would have a problem if i remember your car's height. How negative was your camber?
