Nice looking ride.  I look at your 2025 model and I realise how dated my 2018 is.  :blubber:

Impressive sound system! I can see why you might want to upgrade your springs.  For me, had too much thumping doof-doof when a young man doing security gigs at discos etc; tinnitus is a bitch!

Aww, c'mon John, now you're just rubbing it in!!  :D

The sound system does look like a tidy installation.

Have to say that I prefer the rims you replaced. Just my opinion  :honk: :Cuppa:

theyre definatley not going to be to everybodys taste, but i like to be different
kept the originals in boxes just in case i ever want to go back to them , one thing ive learnt over the years is never get rid of the original parts as its harder to bring a car back to stock than it is to modify a car (finding mint original parts )
