Just went for the V-maxx kit, but think I might change the problematic rear shocks for KWs.

I was under the impression that the dodgy shocks were from the early production days and since been rectified. Or are people still having bushes failing?.....

I think the splitter will look better when the van is lower...

Cheers, difference is night and day but if I was to start over again I would probably lower it first and then wheels. But ooh well what's done is done and I'm pretty pleased with it so far.

My bad :oops: but i will most likely be getting something a little more exotic for show season next year. Have a few types in mind, fifthteen52 tarmacs, rotiform nues or possibly corvette saw blades not sure!

Have decided to keep the splitter it's grew on me, the front bumper I got had a few scratches but no cracks on anything major so as long as yours is sturdy enough it should turn out great once painted. ;)
