    That is a seriously well sorted car. It looks mean as hell. It's the complete opposite to the stretched tire look and looks awesome.

        looks mean as hell. I love it. The only thing I would change is the volvo lip. Very nice. I didn't think you could put a strut brace on IXs. Keep up the good work!

            Your car actually looked good with DBs. Like the plastics though.

                you sent your strut housings to GC right? I seem to remember seeing pics a while back.

                everything looks great. the only thing I'm not really digging is the volvo lip.

                oh yeah and what is that transmission mount? filled with polyurethane? the stock mount really blows with more than stock power and hard driving.

                      Yup, its the same ones you seen. the Camber plates blow ass, Ive been meaning to call them up. they made prototypes and thats what im running and they never sent the real deals. i doubt if they even made them. the bearings bind and the springs pop, and they didnt even fit, i had to trim them and they arnt drilled correctly so i have no caster adj. but i have obo 2.75 deg of caster ATM. AND they are starting to bow.

                      The bushing, its filled with JB weld... haha I did that on my shifter and shifter bushings and it held up. Im not sure how this will work on the bushing though... time will tell.

                      Yeah the volvo lip was 10$, its like Harbor freight tools. You fell bad because they are cheap and made in china but you buy them anyways.

                        yeah they didn't look good in the pics. ix camber plates are hard to design with the inverted bearings. they looked like they added a lot of stack height.

                          Looks nice; I think it would've looked best with unpainted diving boards but that's just me. Props for getting the right parts to make an iX handle well.

                              they didnt add as much as i thought they would. I did a little eye to eye comparison. It looked like about a centimeter taller as i recall.
