If you get a chance, can you get some more pics of the "Magnum Force" (the red one with stripes). Esp the reat. I looked at the specsheet and where it referenced "RK Sport". I looked up RK Sport and all i found was a GM "candy" shop. I love the striping on it. I have been playing with different graphic stripe ideas. My SXT is silver and first thought about leaving the stripes silver and painting the rest black, but that is a lot of $$$ to do. Now thinking of what colors goes with silver base. Thinking of either black or the bright bright metallic blue. Of course I will have to remove the rack and repaint the holes too.

Did you notice Hotchkis springs and sway bars? I hope they make it to the open market.

I'll chime in and say that the "Magnum Force" is a disappointment.
Sure the shiny wheels, rading stripes, and a hood scoop are nice but there's no meat in that burger.

Other than the Kenne Bell computer (probably a tuning box) there's no performance enhancements. Oh well, I guess the aftermarket tuners will keep trying. Or abandon the 5.7 Hemi altogether and concentrate their efforts on the 6.1L Hemi.
