Well I just recently bought rota grids so I'll rock those for a while. And transfer case will get done during the summer. Engine/transmission/transfercase will all be taken care of this summer. All at once to minimize down time. I'll also throw in a twin disk.

I just need to make sure they extend all the day. if you want to see ati racing(cwest) front sides and jdm rear my car is perfect example boss lol as i have that combination looks baller. I might take you up on that offer actually as i been thinking hardcore about buying them and just seeing if its possible

Iv seen your car..it does look better with the front bumper. But I plan to stick with oem bumper so would prefer oem side skirts.

Don't hesitate on those skirt extensions. Like I said if they dont fit or you just dont like the fitment I'll definitely buy them from you for close to what you paid for them as long as they aren't scratched/messed up in the fitment process

got 2 5 gallon jugs of amsoil with plenty of filters in my garage haha.

also got the investment part down, renting out 12 houses and counting. soon as these last 2 are paid off it will be time for 1 or 2 more to take on.

Buschur rear mustache bar and side differential supports. You would even have some left over for the front lightweight crossmember. That's some great weight savings there.

are there any other gains besides weight saving with the mustache bar and diff supports?

like i said, my car is pure street. im not too worried about weight since its already heavy. the 12 in the probox is heavy alone. i also have my entire trunk lined with dynamat.

A whole lot less drivetrain slop. Easier to control rear end. Overall, it really adds to the driving experience.
