Question a few questions

i got a second set of 04 BBS sti rims in silver, and i wanted to get them powder coated a different color.
What place in the bay area can do this kind of work?

i also just picked up a Perrin rear sway bar, i wanted to find out how difficult is the install of bar?

And lastly what are the benefits of the Whiteline ALK?

thanks

OT, but I assume your car is fixed back up and running again? You should post some "before and after" pics.

yup

about 1/2 the way down the page.

Thanks doodoobrown for the how on the sway bar. You mention that you can change the bar with suspension still loaded, is that how most people without a lift do it?
any do/don'ts when putting in a new sway bar.
I also picked up some steering rack bushings & Diff bushings, i hear those are a real B!@tch! to get in, so i think i will have tha work done.

ohh yeah, still would like to know what are the benefits from the Whiteline ALK?
