Default my Drop

ok so last night i ordered..

tokico D specs shocks

skunk 2 coil overs

camber kit rear

megan low tie bar

megan strut tower bar

im really excited to see how this is going to look considering i havnt seen a car like mine lowered with coil overs or rode in a car like mine with coil overs

ive heard alot about them on our cars and im pretty interested to see how its going to be.

anyways im going to do a before and a after on my car and every so it should be pretty interesting

and possibly a DIY

BEFORE: ( this is my old lx, i recently traded the lx for a ex 5 speed.. its the same color and all tho lol just diffrent exhaust and what not)

Anything should fit over the Injen. It has an elbow on the intake rather than a bend.

ok this is pissing me off

EVERYTHING has sent me a tracking number for the items i have ordered except!

the camber kit.

it says the order was transacted and i got a receipt and all but besides that nothing has been sent to me.

what should i do?

1. wait till all the items get here and a couple days after and see if it shows up.
2. call the bitches up and complain
3. report to ebay?

i have sent them numerous emails about it and nothing has been returned.

ugh

There's nothing better than installing some gear on the car alongside some strippers.
