Default Air Bags on neon !!!

Everyone is commenting on my pics of my car with the bags on it. I have taken them off my car and can say it was about the worst $3000 ive ever spent in my life !!! They ride like crap, They constantly leak, They make noise when you hit a bump, and worst of all you cant race with them on your car. It throws your center of gravity all around and really slows you down. Its good for show though.

Looks nice, but it won't go fast. If you are gonna show the car I would put them on, other than that no way.

I did it my self. But you have to buy little things here and there. And man if I can tell you one thing DO NOT BUY THEM USED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !! You will always spend more in the long run. I had an acura integra with bags that I bought used.. BIG mistake..........................

Just remember if you want to race it ... Dont bag it ... And you WILL have to drill holes in your car to run all of the lines, You can hide most of the big ones but you still have to mount the tank and compressor. Heres a pic of how I hid my back valves, And you always want to have your down valves outside of the car ...
