w00t! Thanks again Alex. Oh, and SRJ for the bolt-in hardware for the SFCs. The n00bs at Big O Tire in Newport Beach had so much trouble figuring out how to position the 2x4s to get my car on the alignment rack that it made me doubt that they ever get any low cars like the thousands of $45k+ sports cars in the area. Once it was on the rack though, it was all good.

You're on crack, man. I've never seen a purple bird at any meets anywhere. I've only seen a purple Bird once on the 405 S in Irvine in like 2005 or 2006 and I think it had some kind of a ram air hood. Couldn't see anything else since I was on the 405 N.

Which Sears are you at? I need an alignment badly. I took my Z to Pep Boys (against my better judement) and they turned me away after several failed attempts to get my car onto their 2 post lift saying I was just simply too low.

+2. I'm slammed...lower than Alex (), and I also need an alignment.
Also not many places can get my car in the air, even with 4 post lifts...
