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

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! 

few more pics

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

The sound system does look like a tidy installation.

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

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 )

the latest update ... new amp on a custom made steel mount , 750w rms x 4 channel into 4 ohms just waiting until i can be bothered wiring it up.
