Stock Front Strut assembly....12.6 lbs...
KW Front Strut assembly... 12.9 lbs...



Fronts.... adjusting the ride height..



Front ...After adjustment...about a 1 inch gap between the top of the tire and fender... Coool thing of note...All 4 fenders are Factory Rolled..so nooo issue whatsoever with fitment...



Obligatory Side shot..



and...the Side Profile shot...soooo Sexy..

Turned all traction aids off and did a small spin out at a stop light while it was raining

Mind you, didn't even get past 5k rpm and it was spinning. Yay skinny tires!

Is there power up there behind the mirror so that you can hard-wire the v1 up in the headliner? That would make a great install and a sweet how-to!

There is since I have an Autodimming mirror, but I am so damn lazy I used the cig lighter in the glove and wired it through the A pillar - roof lining... I know if the airbags blow something will get ripped out...
