    You tell 'em Kaiser, that's bs

    It's not hard to have paypal automatically populate an address on a sales order

    I don't understand how some of these places still exist with dogshit customer service. It's really not hard.

      all it takes is one dumbass or lazy employee and all the computer automation in the world gets f*ed up.

      hope you get your stuff as promised.

          I haven't had much luck with vendors throughout this project. Don't they know I have a build thread to post on?

            Well after no movement on the tracking, I got them to refund my money. A hollow victory because now I have my money, but I'm out 4 weeks of time. Thinking on just throwing money at a GC setup.......

                  Well ended up going with fortune auto coil overs. The 500 series. Ordered from AJ at endless, his prices were pretty good actually

                  After some talks with snap, I settled on 8k front, 12k rear. He did some maths and what not and reminded me about my upgraded sway bars and such. He also has experience driving a car with his hr setup and also johns car with the 10k/12k setup and he pushed me towards a happy medium

                            you will be SO much happier with the fortune auto's. Blessing in disguise man! Night and day difference from BC.

                              Skid plate was very very close to the oil pan, I blame the chineseum core support. Made some spacers out of 1/8" flat stock to give some room between pan and plate

                              a9f91d4714276f6fa1c7f360cf9bae8f.jpg

                              Then this

                              e48814dbc67d6592edf47252548eeff0.jpg

                              Now there's daylight (about a finger space)

                              fd9de1f1df055fa4d67410ea8bba043c.jpg

                              Also noticed the steering linkage would bind a tad after putting everything back in so I filed the edge down barely.

                              Also did New VC gaskets and used some RTV to keep the oil where it belongs. "Reinstalled" my harness covers as well

                                          Jackstands pads @ harbor freight.

                                          Super nice to use. A tad squishy but very strong & don't hurt your car.

                                          Think they are like $8 for two 452eec599b9882705fae1a4a2b960c3d.jpg87b23c78101fdd0b61674d9a2fe60720.jpg
