I love the RB kit, especially V2. Call it a guilty pleasure. Wish I could afford it, and - most importantly - justify it.

Never said it couldn't be done properly. A lot of the ones on social media have hacked up fenders that will probably rust out, running 2" spacers, stretched ebay tires with -15* camber.

Yep!
There are those that need to RB to get the space required to do the performance changes they want to make.
Then there are those that RB for the sake of RB and then have to fill the space they created so it looks like they have changed to performance parts.
I highly doubt the two groups are ever in the same place at the same time.

Its funny, the ones who have a RB kit and performance mods to back it up are usually very helpful at meets (answer questions etc). They ones who don't, park across 4 spots and things are kept secret (I have big plans etc).

I have yet to see either type in real life. I guess I don't get out enough.

I'm not sure if you're on FB or not, but there is a group of people in your area. I think its called SWO owners or something like that.

OP sorry about the derailment.

I am a charter member and was one of the very small group at the first meet. The first bunch were great guys but reading the FB stuff now I doubt I will attend many more.
