Victory Function front fenders. Hope to improve front Aero and decrease drag.

Chad from CBRD recommended Hyperco springs. The Hyperco 800 lbs are thicker than Swift 14k, so they weigh more

the overall weight of the front ohlins and front FA weigh about the same. but the rear ohlins shock was about 6 lbs lighter on each corner than the FA, since the ohlins rear have aluminum shock body and also doesn't have external reservoir like the FA.

got a Sparco Ergo seat with removable halo to replace the BuddyClub seat. It's the only seat with removable halo that i could find, for street driving.
