btw i forgot the mention how gorgous that grill looks
I will probably get the full brabus suspension when my shocks are about the die(maybe another yr?). I know its expensive(around 1300 i think) but i have been so satisfied by the ride/ handling balance ill most likely take the plunge. I Can probably get coillovers for that price but i dont think i can tolerate the ride.

wow that's awesome that you're lookin to get the full brabus suspension! i wish i had that kinda dough to burn...i was thinking about gettin a set of h&r springs with h&r shocks and struts. i'd go with the h&r cup kit, but the way it tucks the rear tires under the fenders bothers me.... i'd prefer to have both front and rear tucked or untucked. i know it's just the way the front fender was designed that causes the bigger front gap, but it just doesn't look as clean, imo. oh well...i probably should just get over it and save the money and get the cup kit.
