The shop is only charging me $50 a corner so yeah I'm going to pay for it! I have a garage but it's not heated. And my father-in-laws shop is to busy right now for me to get in there! So for $200 I say deal!

The Hyundai Genesis is an amazing car for a great price. Shoot, 300+ HP with all four-point Brembo brakes for less than $40K!

$200 could buy so much better than an easy coilover install.. I'd just wait for a warm day and install myself if I were you.

today was finally (kind of) warm enough to car wash.

hyundai genesis ftw.

the new style of this forum is odd.

They are Brembos? They felt really nice. Stopped well.

I'm going to have all red tails like you this week... I'm sorry. The old bulb holder isn't compatible with the facelift Depo tails I bought. I then purchased what I thought was going to be a pair of bulb holders from ECS, but turned out to be only one; for 53 dollars. Screw paying 106 for bulb holders that, get this, again aren't compatible! So I ordered red overlays for 22 bucks and called it a day.

I got the little (O) symbol yesterday and today. So it looks like it's time for some new brake pads. It was starting to pull a little to the left anyways.

Probably get myself some Hawks and try to do it within a week.

I raced a genesis (that super badass track edition) and to my delight, I held him all the way to third! Mind you im auto, hes 6 speed, so who knows? Maybe if I had my chip I'd have been the victor. The guy and me talked a bit too, and he was trading a modded m3. Haha I think I changed his mind.
