    no i just put these eibachs on my car with blown struts, i realized they were blown after i had installed all 4 of them. but i ordered some kyb's so my suspension should raise a little bit which is good because my car is sickeningly low. my entire exhaust scrapes on speed bumps! \m/

    theres the steps below brought to us by Carl the rally princess ;).

    1. clean wheels extremely well. this is critical. any grease, dirt, dust, etc. will ruin your paint job. use a good degreaser and scrub scrub scrub.

    2. scuff sand your wheels with a fairly high grit paper (600 - 800 is ok)

    3. clean off all dust from sanding - i wipe down using acetone or isopropyl alcohol

    4. tape off your tires (sticking note cards in between the rim and tire is a quick way - it makes a sort of cone around your rim)

    5. spray down primer. i would do 2 coats

    6. spray down paint. i would do at least 3 coats (light coats)

    7. spray down clear. at least 2 coats

    8. enjoy

    ahh thats right, it was in the email i just must not have included it.

    it is duplicolor bronze. dont mistake it for gold. gold = ghey
    bronze = sexy

    also i finished it with a flat clear, to give it a real look instead of a plastic cheap look.

    Last friday 23rd around 5pm on 35W northbound I waived at a smiling guy on a wagon, if I remember well it was an impreza. I was on a blue GC. I am just curious who you are. I am 100% sure you are on here.

    Silver WRX with club stickers, exhaust, and (I think) a darker colored scoop on the front (it was dark, couldn't really tell what color) and a passenger in the car on I-94 Westbound out between Oakdale and St. Paul somewhere around midnightish.

    I was in the dark red SVX, but it looked like you didn't recognize me as a Subaru.

    Crazy night with the spots.

    First spot was in uptown on one of the side streets parked on the street. Silver bugeye with cannon style muffler. I won't give exact location for protection of the owner, but it was around the Jefferson school area.

    Coming home from my photo class I saw the guy who lives near me. Sorry I forgot your s/n. I flashed you, you tapped your brakes back. :)
