Much happier now

Spent the afternoon in the driveway. Installed my Madness springs and Koni shocks. The ride difference is amazing. So much happier now.

That really closed the gap. How is the ride?

Ride is firmer, which I like, but not harsh at all. Handles way better now and there's no nosedive at all when braking hard. There is some scraping in the back when I hit a bump at speed but its the tire touching the inner fender plastic, not the fender itself. I replaced the bumpstops so it compresses more than before.

When I had my 300 SRT repainted, I had no idea at the time I would buy a Fiat that matched almost exactly.

First off the 500 looks awesome now. Love the setup. And second, that 300 is DOPE . I don't have one but can we see more pics/ get info on the wheels and those gnarly fenders??

Thanks! The 300 is a 2006 that used to be my daily but when I bought my Wrangler in 2013, it's just my weekend/show car now. It has 135k on her and still runs like new. Best car I've ever owned. The fenders were made by a friend, custom cut and welded from steel fenders. The wheels are custom two-piece forged billet from USW, 22x9.5 front and 22x10.5 in the rear. The roof is all glass with a stainless steel cap and she rides on BC Racing coilovers and Hotchkis swaybars.

I also have a 2012 Fiat Pop that I've lowered and here's my Wrangler too.

rsmeanie,

Your FIAT 500E looks awesome! Very clean wheels and your car looks amazing with the MADNESS Springs. It's great to see FIAT enthusiasts get creative with their cars. We look forward to seeing more of your car!

Wow that's an impressive setup. Amazing fab work on the fenders too. You'll have to entertain me with one last pic of the roof on the 300. The wheel taste in your driveway has my vote

Lol! Thanks! I guess I shouldn't show you my bikes then. As you can see, I have a charcoal theme going on. :-)

Got the windows tinted today. I think I'm done with the mods for a bit.

Those are Competizione CV-2?
Do you by chance know how much they weigh?

They look great.
