that wagon belongs to a friend of mine (redline) He is a vinyl guy (numbers car graphics and such) it is lowered on STi Springs. so it scrubed a bit on the rutted stage parts


but other than that fun as hell.


I finished that light bar about a week before we left. worked awesome, no bounce at all.
