LOL the anticipation is difficult.
That's another question I have in being new to the area. Where is a good Shop to purchase parts for our cars?
And a Good Tune/Repair/Install Shop locally? Like for Tuning,Suspension installs?

I purchase my parts online from vendors on the forum. Best prices and largest selection. I install everything myself, but motiva is a well known performance shop here. It's by Louisiana and Montgomery. Tuning is another story. There aren't really any tuners that I know of here that can tune our cars :/ unless you purchase a standalone ecu... None of them support ecutek. Your best bet is remote tuning.

Yes sir. I have no need for coilovers. I don't care for all of the adjustability and don't want to go any lower than this so the sportlines work perfect for me

Nice. I looked at the 17x9 options from Rota, but their +42 offsets worry me a bit since I'll be running 245 width tires. The pics I've seen are too close for comfort to the strut perch... People say it's fine, but I prefer the little extra clearance ya know
