Its true. The guy didnt use the air gun on the silver F430 they had on the show, but he used it on the orange Murci.

No tint....your car looks perfect!

As for the clear bra, there's a guy in Greenwich, Ct. Armorglove, who does one piece applications end-to-end.

Hey Gil! Are you painting or powdercoating your calipers? I suggest PC since this is one item that will see breakdust and a bit harsher cleaning products on it than the normal "Soap and water" Also will you be paining back on the logo's or getting vinyl?
I can't wait to see it when it's done!

What suspension are you going to have installed to get the drop you want? Once lowered, is their enough adjustment to get your alignment back in spec? If you're getting coilovers, how about adding a corner balance to your list of mods?

He is loweing it with the factory suspension. (I don't know if it will require an alignment, but Ron has done it before so he will do it the right way.)

Thanks for the reply ! That's outstanding being able to adjust ride height with factory suspension. I'm used to having to buy all new coilovers or at least springs to adjust ride height, but then again, I haven't owned a Lambo yet . I hope to buy a Gallardo soon, what is involved in adjusting it's ride height? How difficult would it be to do a corner balance on it assuming that scales were accessible? Are the anit-roll bars adjustable to take out preload after ride height adjustment. Sorry for all the questions and don't want to take thread off topic but, I'd want all the suspension adjustments available used to tune the ride as best as possible. But then I'm a wanna be race car driver, if the car is not being tracked or driven hard, corner weight is a little over kill.

Thanks,
Gary

If the car comes with factory coilovers (like mine) it can be lowered that way (Like I did). The Gallardo is the same as far as I am concerned. Ron (vipertestarossa) will be able to answer the rest of your questions as I have not lowered a Gallardo myself.
