How do you like it ?
I have a 300 and am disappointed on how it rides. It rides like a 3/4 ton truck and noisy. I can hear the rocks from the road hit the floor when driving. My ford work truck rides better. Great car other than that.

Borla Exhaust Tip and Borla Pro XS muffler. It's more difficult to get a decent picture of the muffler on a lowered truck than I thought.

Side note- next up will be some interior work. I'm hoping to get the front two seats recovered and possibly add cooled air to the driver seat.

How did you tell me you have the back lowered?

Tony's 5305 coils with the shorter shock. I had to add a 2" spacer instead of the 1".

**EDIT** shorter shock meaning performance street shock

Need sound clip of that Borla....
I'll get on it. It sounds exactly like I wanted: nice rumble at low rpms and nearly inaudible from the cabin up to 1600 rpms. There is a slight cabin drone from ~2100-2300 rpm which happens to be around 75-80mph. Really sounds nice when I step on it too.

What size tires you have? What is ground to fender measurements on the rear?

We've already talked about all this information. Check around page 4-5 of this thread.

Sorry didn't see reply. I love it. No complaints at all here. Rides smooth and nice. But mine has only a few thousand miles on it and yours is the older style so I would imagine after miles any car tends to ride rough.

07+ brake upgrade incoming within the next week or two. I can't wait to see how big the difference is. After upgrading to the 20s, I can tell it takes longer to stop and it seems to have gotten even worse over the past few months. I'm pretty sure rotors and calipers are the original ones, so it's definitely time to upgrade. Just waiting on rotors...

So I've gotta do brakes on my 2006 pretty quick. Thinking about doing the 07+brake upgrade. What are the benefits of doing it? I don't know much about it but have heard alot of guys on here say they've done it.
