I have a soft spot for these... Especially the compressor version! But they are pretty rare.

Prefer these to the facelift tbh, only thing I liked on the facelift was the mesh on the front bumper.

Have a few plans for this, going for an all black theme

full set of springs, less than an hour tbh. then the wheel alignment ontop of that, another 15/20 minutes at most.

but then, a real mechanic will need several tea breaks in that time. so around 2.5-3 hours for the job.
