Default headers and coilvers

HI Just had headers and coilovers fitted used LG GT2 and 17/8 stainless works both great fit and quality sold to me by Xplosive Performance who I really recommend, they took time to discuss my needs then gave me a great price and service( I'm in the UK). the headers were tight but fitted great and the 3" X pipe and hi flow connected straight to the stock back boxes and make a great sound. Changed the plugs and leads while we had easy access. The coilovers are set at 6/6 front /back and the ride seems good if a little soft compared to stock (ZO6) hope to put some test time on the track and probably end up 8/7 front to back

My hero, these would be the next two expensive mods I want to do to my car. Right now I am doing the DIY mods like Homelink and LED DRL lights.

Congrats and Enjoy!
