hmmm... install...
1) highly recommend a hoist, it would be VERY hard to do without one.
2) we probably spent maybe 30 hours in total with 2 people
(but we had never done one before, doing it again would probably be 20 hours solid)
3) i'm still sorting out teething problems (minor leaks etc.)
overall it's a big job, i would recommend getting a workshop to do it for sure, unless you can afford the downtime to do it yourself.
...ok 4 days into driving on bags:
1) the handling isn't actually that bad - it still rides really nice.
2) am dynamatting my back seat & parcel shelf + building a dynamat box for the compressors at the moment, as the noise is a bit loud.
Overall... am glad i did it, the car looks alot tougher, and i have had TONNES of comments, that said - it's purely a style/looks thing.
