Looking back I probably should have done a $30 can of G2 that comes out looking like runny syrup:unsure::ROFLMAO:

$65 with today's inflation :(

That looks really good... i need to get my 6 pistons redone, id like a dark gold color.
Color options are endless! Just go to Prismatic Powders and start searching. I got lucky and found a guy on the gt500 forums that found a powder that is extremely close to Twister Orange.

I just know you can't wait to show your new wheels off. haha
Don’t have them yet and I’m still waiting on one damn tire that FedEx probably stole. Also waiting on Steeda to send me a flange plate with extended studs for their camber plates so I can utilize the spacer kit I already have that will allow me to dial in front ride height.

What spacer kit are you using?
Will be using these camber plates.

I already have the front strut spacer kit from Steeda for the stock upper strut mount, but they offer a spacer kit made for their camber plates. The only part different in both kits is the stud plate, so instead of buying the entire kit again, I called their tech support and bought the stud plates over a week ago. Apparently this takes time for someone to pull the stud plates from stock...lol. Anyways, this is essentially the Steeda spacer kit I will be using.

Not sure yet, but I want that option. My blue car I felt was just a hair too low in the front so we’ll see how this car sits and if I need to adjust, I can.

I normally mix and match bmr springs to fix this, very common with whipple cars being too low due to weight on the nose. They list a spring set to help level out cars with blowers with some pictures. Im not sure which ones you got, but i do keep a lot of BMR stuff in stock for the S550, as well as springs if the camber spacers dont get you want your looking for

I went with the BMR Performance springs.

I have the SP763R in stock, which are performance minimum drop for power adder cars, non Magneride. They use a mix of the normal performance spring out back, but minimum drop spring up front

They list what spring combo to use with a power adder, not sure if you seen it. You can also use the SP082 out back

That almost looks like the front is higher by just a touch. This is why I bought the Steeda spacer kit. I’ll be able to dial it in perfectly.

Got the rear brakes buttoned up and back together. Damn powder coater threw all the emergency brake parts on the wrong calipers so had to switch that stuff over. Finally got the Steeda stud plates yesterday too so hoping to drop stuff off at Drews then I can throw the front struts back in and get the brakes installed.

Hopefully they didn't fuck up the seals on the pistons when they put them back together, i always get concerned when a price is too good. They look good though, color looks pretty matched as well.
