| Hey, new to the board....I was just lurking around and thought I´d post up my ride. I´m not a ´real´car guy, but I think my riv may be turning me into one....... | |

| Well I'm just saying that because there are sometimes problems with the electronic level control switch. You don't have issues with the rear sticking way up in the air do you? | |

Nope, no problems with that. I have it stashed away for the winter, so it´ll definitely be something I´ll be interesting in checking out in a month or so. By the way, you really got me with those pics of ´your riv´....even called my wife over to oggle at those rims | |

| Thanks guys, I don´t have nearly the know-how you guys have, so I´m basically trying to sponge up as much information as I can. I bought it looking like that 2 years ago, and until now I´ve basically been trying different products and things to try and keep it looking as good as possible. I´ve also been hunting up and down for another chrome center cap, since one has come loose, but they are extremely elusive. I may just end up putting on another set of rims, although I dont really want to change up the original look. Anyways, thanks for your comments, there´s alot of friendly people on this site! | |

| Nice looking car. I wish I had a set of those chrome stockers. Eventually I'll get a set for the winter. | |

| Yup, the only thing bad about them is the clips on the center cap´s are a bit fragile and can break off. | |
