Bat\'s KW\'s Coilovers installed, black emblems too. (PICS and thoughts)!

Man does this car look and feel so much better! The KW's make such a big difference not only giving my car the aggressive stance I want, but handling is so much better. I have the springs set at about a 1.5" drop. A tad more in the rear since there is a bigger tire to fender gap. I rears did settle a bit so I need to re-adjusted those. All in all a 2 finger gap between the tire and fenders. The ride is firm, but not harsh. I also changed out my polished side emblems for black ones to complete the look I want.

Lastly, I would like to give a big thanks to Todd and Mike at A&C Performance in Temecula for the outstanding work and customer service they provided! These guys have a great passion for the Viper and between them, have several years of Viper experience underneath them. I wouldn't go anywhere else :2tu:

Now, the PICS!

Re: Bat\'s KW\'s Coilovers installed, black emblems too. (PICS and thoughts)!

Wow that is low... Any problems with scraping or rubbing in the wheel wells? While I am into polished rim look, I must say it is clean and mean looking. Wasnt sure about the stripes when you mentioned it but I think they came out great. Must be killer in person.

Congrats...

The only issue i have with the stock SRT wheels is the offset in the rear. someone should come out with a 1/2 spacer to bring the rears out a bit.

Looks nice! :2tu:


If that's enough room for two fingers, well, you've got small fingers! :D

Very cool!

Nice job on the before and after photo positioning too! It's unbelievable how much the ride height effects the look - the first side profile before/after doesn't even look like the same car.

Front wheela are tucked in a bit as well. I don't think using spacers would be a good idea due to the drop, I'd have some real rubbibg issues there. As far as scraping goes, I do have a slight increase in scraping, though not enough to justify raising it a bit.

Bat,
I see that you are in SD area. Where did you get your car striped and rear bumper painted?

I was just going to ask.... Bat I hope you're not going to sell it.
Thats what happened to the GTS also.... the stripes were just on and you started thinking about selling.

And....
Now I'm reading you're allready selling it again.

No more stripes on the new car?
