Bought them off an individual on Nasioc. Brand new, he sold his car before he mounted them. I saved abt $250, so happy with the deal--almost covers the powdercoat...

Will post pics when they're done. Going with Gunmetal instead.

Thx

Here they are on car w/ the powdercoat. The car sits so high from the factory, I'm going to need to get under it to be sure it's not a 4x4 lol
