Thanks fellas. I washed it first ( 45 min ) dry time ( 20 min ) Rubbing compound, slight abrasive, for the areas near the tires that catch all the road grime and tar ( 30 min ) Paint cleaner ( 1 hour ) 2 coats of polish ( 1 hour by hand ) 2 coats of wax ( 1 hour by hand ) so all together, about 4 1/2 hours. Should just have to wash and dry for the next 2 months, then I'll do it again if we have a mild winter day.

^ yeah, I have been wanting to, but a friend of mine did the eibach pro kit and lost major traction. The weight transfer was way off. I'm thinking of just doing the heater hose mod in place of the rear spring hats.

Thats odd, I gained traction when I put on the pro kit. But I also did SFC's at the same time, so... yea. But they would make your car look mean as hell.

I want to do it, but the $$ will be spent on go fast(er) goodies. I have winter plans for a 12 bolt or 9" rear and an Iron block 383 LSx from texas speed, built for spray on 11.1 comp. Should be able to handle a 250 shot.....woot woot.
