Thank you very much! Exactly the info I was looking for. This is for my client who recently picked up a SLS, I'm ordering the wheels and suspension for him, so was hoping to learn a bit about what others are doing! Already completed the matte gray vinyl wrap

Before wrap:

After wrap (only photo I've got since completion):

Is the SLS in the before pic lowered or is that photoshop?
If it's lowered can you please tell me what suspension it's sitting on?

Thank you
