Gold-Lines installed today

Weather was dry enough to get around to installing my Gold-lines today. The car handles great, drives great, and the ride feels just fine, no rougher than before.

Sorry about the lower half of the picture, my phone didn't want to take a wonderful picture in the failing light.

Install time was just under 2 hours, the rear only taking 20 minutes with my brothers help.

Dropping the front like that leads me to believe you must not take it out on I 65 with all it's chuck holes

Pssst...Don't tell no one, but I've got a Victory red 09 up in Elkhart that from a distance to an untrained eye could pass for your's.

HAHA there are only 3 bad potholes from 43 to 26 on 65, all under the Eisenhauer overpass in the right hand lane. Ive been mapping out my drive to work the last few weeks in preparation for my drop springs. My biggest concern is 52, there are some pretty bad ones, and they pop up over night it seems.

Edit: post some pictures of your 09

The only exterior pic I have is of it setting in sellers drive Feb 12'. It's an 09 LS, with 16" wheels now missing the plastic covers. I mention the tires cause to me it appears to have more rear ride height than you started with. (edit) Looking at your pic again, maybe not.

I kinda stumbled on this car at the last minute and had it not been a panel, I probably wouldn't have given it a serious look before deciding to buy.

Maybe it's just the old fuddy duds I hang with...but I find myself explaining what it is far too often.

Having to explain what it is, is half the fun really. Or even better, just leave em guessing.

Used my phone's camera today while working in the yard so the dirt wouldn't show.
