I already love them! i'm gonna wait a while to get the scabs tho since these are brand new it would seem like a waste lol. also want to get rotated mounts and harness bar or rear sway. pretty much every powell part lol. which reminds me I need to find a buyer for my ttr upper engine mount and poly tranny mounts

I had a question about the f23 rotated mounts. I believe you have them on your car correct? do you have the stock fe1 rear transmission mount with the spacer or did you upgrade to the lnf rear mount with the spacer? looking to order probably next friday

I actually have an ss TC in my area for sale at 10grand...same minor mods as what I have, except the tires are finished. I'm definitely interested, but don't know if I should go from cobalt to cobalt ahaha. I'll be the reverse of Padlock (going from a Victory Red base model, to a Black TC)
