thinkin about baggin the boX
lately i have been gettin tired and a lil bored of my car. 
so i have beeen adding little minor after market parts on it to keep it looking good and different. i dont know why but i get bored of the same old car after a while so i have to change it up a bit.
so i have come to the decision to either get a new car, which would be more money, or just get sum big ol twanx and bags for my car. it would deffinetly get rid of the old boring feeling of my car. plus i would be playing w/ those switches foreveR!
now does anybody know hoe much around i would be spending on this little project?
~any input greatly appreciated~

bags are cool. It's fun to see peoples reactions when the car drops or rises. They prolly won't see another one like for awhile. Unfortunaltely though, I have been leaking air again and I am sick constantly tracking it down. After two hours the compressors are on refilling the tank and haven't touched the switches. That is the only thing the bugs me about them. Oh and my rattling fornts struts from Easystreet. And yeah I still have to pay to ship their defective product back. Is that right?

I was using the PTC fittings from Easy street and they start leaking after a little while, I switched over to good old Compression Fittings from lowes and no problems what so ever! Ive left my car sitting for 3 days while away and came back and lifted the car right up without the compressor even coming on!

From what I can tell you either get a Rattle sound or the struts mess up on you..
Thats why Im still only rolling the rears until someone has good luck with a front kit
There are several with the ES fronts and are not having problems though

damn idk what to do, i want bags but everyone complains about every kit out there... well, except for airrunner. I can't see myself spending 3800$ on it though 
. Does everything "bolt-on" to the xB? Like what gauges and switchs does it come with?
