Default Clean again and ridin' on SSC's now!

So, I knocked the beach crud off the GXP and cleaned out the inside too, it's amazing what one week at the beach can do to a ride, lol! Also, I met up with my buddy and we finally slapped on the SSC springs that I've had sitting around for a few weeks now. Here are a few crappy cell pics for now, the stance is nice, not slammed but way better than stock. (went with the 1.7"/1.7")










Joe.

I had my buddy do it for me, took just a tad over two hours, not sure how much a shop would charge though.

I use a brillo pad/s.o.s pad on the inside to remove the exhaust residue, it scratches the hell out of them, but it works. Mine were so bad when I bought the car that I really didnt mind scratching them up to get the black off, it was worth it though. I just have to go back every couple of weeks and do it again, no biggie.

Good deal.

I just might have to do that until I find some respectable, OEM-looking, double sidewall, stainless steel tips.
