Mods:
Front MPower Black grille
Front black wrap
RKP Carbon fiber front lip
Bmw 612 style 22s Replicas
Custom downpipes
Custom Stage 2 tune
Burble tune
H&R VTF suspension
Coding
20mm spacers all around
Nice ride and mods mate! Question, which tune company did you go with and the burble, was that part of that same tune?
Thank you!

BX in the house lol, Honestly the Vtf's were on the bouncy side as I think they were set to the lowest setting in the front. I literally had the shop that installed them raise it up a bit a couple days ago and now......I have to say I'm in love with the ride again. Smooth ride, handles curves very well, still harsh on bumpy roads but hey it's lowered

I was considering KW coilovers but now I think I'll keep the H&R VTF much longer.

Congrats on the mods. Beautiful color combo and I love the front grill! Where did you find the 612 replica wheels?

Those pics on your IG page are ridiculous, well done.

I looked at the RKP stuff @ IND but their prices are insane.

Would love more feedback on the H&R VTF suspension now that you've had more time to live with it....

How does ride compare to OEM in Comfort, Sport, Sportplus?

The H&R VTF suspension feels firmer/stiffer than Oem. It's only noticeable when driving over bumpy/uneven roads. Not to mention having 22s doesn't help either

But honestly, I'm happy with the Vtf. No rush to get the KW coilovers.

I would like to know how the ride would be if you were to add new shocks with a VTF installation. If that would make a difference. 🤔🤔

I can't answer that as Im currently running the shocks that came with the truck when I bought it last year. If anyone can recommend some good high performance shocks would be great!

I'm sure somebody in here did it. Just dont know who. But I would hate to change out the shocks and get the exact same ride on VTFs. Better off saving ya bread.

Such a clean setup!

If you're still monitoring this thread, mind sharing what tire sizes you went with on those 22's? Would be interested in the wheels specs as well for both front and rear.

Very clean and tastefully modded, where did you get the 22’’ reps if I may ask? I’ve seen ones on eBay with a gloss black barrel but not gray.

Thank you! I got them from a wheel shop in the bronx. I went back to the shop recently but they don't carry them anymore.
