How are the KW coilovers? I though of them but only V2 and so instead went with YYZ and Koni's. I have FE5 control arms with both the leading and trailing CAB's Powell makes as well as under car rails and his twist beam bushings. It's definitely tail happy, almost a bit too much I thought as well but I'm sure I've just got it not set up correctly with the valving on the Koni's. Going to have to switch to slicks and we'll see how I do.

plasti-dipped for now. I can't find a shop that will powder coat them for a reasonable price, I talked to 3 local shops and one wants 180 per wheel, and the other 2 said it would be about 200 per wheel.

Wow you have crappy places around you I was quoted in the 80-90 a wheel range for stripping and powdercoating silver, which is a more expensive color since it requires multiple coats.

I was told by one place the base price is 140 per wheel if it's a 15" then they added 10 for each additional inch, and 20 more for white since "it takes more powder to cover the rim." Then they said since the spokes are so close that they might have to end up charging more, for it being a complex job. ROBBERY!!!!

That's what I'm doing, maybe even do my PF01's instead of just a silver PC.
