TBH, I'm not a huge fan of the M; too big body for me personally. But you sir have pulled it off beautifully ! So simple yet elegant. And those LIPS THOUGH!!!!

 

I absolutely LOVE the air suspension! Right now I have the dampers set quite hard but at a softer setting, the ride is more comfortable than stock "S" suspension ride quality. And the car handles as well as any coil-over car I've been in.

If you think about it, air suspension doesn't have any compromises, static cars do. I can drive at a slammed height and raise up to clear obstacles. Alternatively, I can drive at a reasonable height and then slam it when I park. With static you're either not low enough to maintain daily drivability or so low where you worry about constantly scrapping. In fact the one and ONLY thing about air that gets to me is the sound of the compressors running to refill the tank when I raise the car but it's only for 20-30 seconds.

I'd say if you have the finances to run an air setup, because it's not cheap, then go for it! Air is amazing and you won't be disappointed. No livability issues whatsoever.

 

my new steering wheel top n bottom is leather wit suede sides and added thickness

 

^^^Nice!! I like this a lot better than the CF steering trend. I was considering something similar with the alcantara/suede!

 

Agree, looking nice there Dawg, nice tie-in w/ your red seats too, well done!

 

found a nice G/Z club that meets local....only took a couple snaps real quick...will get more next time. Had a decent turn out...think like 17 overall. Need a group shot next time

 

Love that cockpit

My biggest issue with spending money on my cars (and Jeep) is my wife and she would definitely be on-board for the air set-up if their aren't really any compromised to the ride/handling, so that's a start.


I have no issue with the compressor occasionally running. I have dual air compressors on my Jeep (for air lockers, etc...), so we are used to hearing them kick on and off.


Do you have any pics of the installation (i.e. where you compressors are mounted in the trunk... guessing in the spare tire well)?

 

I'm not a fan of suede/Alcantara, but your steering wheel turned out great! Who did the work for you?

 

Only problem is it wears out very quickly from the oils and crap on your skin. Not great for a steering wheel....

I like suede / alcantara headliners and trim accents though.

 

Yeah, honestly no compromises especially since you're used to the dual compressors.

The car handles so great on air, I almost skipped sways!

 

The dual compressors, air tank and management are all mounted on that bracket. The compressors are isolated on the bracket and the bracket is isolated to the parcel shelf. So vibration is minimized.

The best part of this type of install is that I get to keep my spare tire and elegantly mount the air ride equipment!

 

Went up to sequoia national park..was really interested to find out how the car would drive..had to snap a couple pictures

 

Nice shots there RJ, that G really is set up so well, congrats!

 

thanks guys

it was done by dctms on instagram

very true thats why i stopped holding it from the suede now after i noticed a lil wear already
