Default And here she is :)



So Here she is

I did bomex front lip. Blacked out center bumper. FIG grilles all black. Bomex Side skirts. A rear spoiler. Rear bumper protector for loading thins. And debadged the XB from the car.

What do you guys think? I washed it after this pic cuz it was getting dark wanted to get it in some light. But I cleaned it up some will grab better cleaned up pics tomorrow.

I will grab some better pics later on when I get a chance. I am at work right now when I got the car

Give them some time unfortuantely and they are highly able to break. I hate to tell you that. My old forum for 3000gt had a thread on ksports and tons of people reported in saying ksports tend always break and right out of warrenty. I just do not trust ksports at all. I hope yours stay together. I don't wish anyones to break, its just more possible for it to happen I really wish they had megan racing coilovers for our car

Yea the rear wheels are 245x45 and the front is 225x45 so the rear is a little higher. I am gunna try and find a way to fix that till I can get coilovers. Yea it was a quick snap shot with my phone in the sun

and you think Megan is better?
There's a ton of Ksport coilover owners that drive xB2s that are pretty content with them.
A set of Ksports for a Scion is not going to be the same as one for a Silvia. Believe it or not Megan has a good rep with the GS doods over at ClubLexus.

Papo's ____ed up because he had them maxed out and was hitting s__t. (to my understanding)

Anyway I'm just trying to steer you clear from the illusion that Megan makes quality products. They're just a company that creates generic products some are hits others are massive misses.

I understand that, but on my old platform tons and tons of people megans were the good alternative for coilovers at a cheap price. I just don't trust ksports, and I have already seen a few people on here with ksport problems thats all.

my coilovers are not shot i don't know why people keep saying that. top hats are worn out. not sure why that has to do with being shot... also i switched them out with new ksports because i thought they were making noise, and when i chaned them out, the new ones mad noise also till the other day there was to much pressure on the bearing part of the endlink.
kthnx.

and if your lookin for rear coilovers let me know the backs are perfect and you can run the fronts as is untill you swap out the tophats if the rattling bothers you to much.

yeah thats cool then don't say my ksports are blown because then people come on here read your statement and then use your post as a reference to say my coils are blown, when for them to be blown the shock body has to be bad and its not. THANKS.

Man don't get testy. I was saying they are shot because they are damanged and needed fixed. Thats just how I describe things. They may not be fully destroyed it was just my choice of words for the moment. Don't get mad no hard feelsing
