      Well, only the rims, rear spoiler, and pin stripes are Schnitzer stuff. She liked the rims and rear spoiler better than any other make, so I tracked down what was probably the last brand new ACS rear spoiler on the planet. Took 4-5 months just to find it, and 5 months to get it here. I did the pinstripes because I thought it would look cool. Way better than any other stripes. I even had the body shop make custom stripes on the rear of the front quarters so that the ACS logo is no longer there. She didn't really want ACS logos all over her car, since it is a Dinan car, and she wanted to not confuse people in the know.

          I was thinking, perhaps you meant that the struts would blow, not the strut towers. this would definetly be true if you used stock struts, or bilstien HDs, which aren't meant for lowering. otherwise, yeah, he's full of shit.
