Some new photos.

The bracket and tank back from powdercoating.

Brackets in krinkle black

My Circuit breaker bracket matches well with the fuse cover. 

The tank

Center mount Bracket

Tanks in to get the center exomount align right.

View from the rear seat side.

Will get started with the the rest tomorrow after running to hardware store to pick up some right angle fittings.

Cannot really follow Accuair's suggested diagram routing of the air hoses and lines due to the way I have the tank mounted. Right now the pressure switch will be mounted all the way at the bottom of the tank if I follow what they say, afraid of water collecting at the bottom and rusting it out. Will try to relocate this to the side of the tank with an adapter fitting.

Almost ready to mount in the car. Just waiting on air pressure gauge

made some progress over the last couple of weeks.

Mocked up the exomount stuff,

Finished up the Amp sub wiring for later

Test mounted the whole setup. Boy it was heavy!!

Tossed the quarter panels back in to get an idea how the trunk will look when done.

Installed BeatSonic Navi bypass

What you guys think of the stealth location of the bypass button?

I love it.

Did some wire managment

Bought some fabric the Euro Cars use.

And now finally installing the Airrex bags into the car!

Didnt seem to have gotten a whole lot while doing the install and running the lines.

Here's photo of it tossed on with the wheels back on.

Looks slammed even on jack stands. Adjusted them to give the strut more travel.

And BOOM. Air'ed out.

still need to try to see if I can get the rear to sit a bit higher when fully aired out.

people seem to not reply but they do sure look judging by the view count.

So I'll just keep adding updates.

Bought a Kuda Mount, *thanks to Silec for showing me it.

and some magnets to mount the elevel controller

Also today found out one of the air hoses in the rear I left some slack on it but the hose ended up getting smashed on a arm. For those who decide to do air and it being their first time, Double check, then triple check and after check again.

Reason why I took a second look and found the smashed hose, This is worrying me that it may rub the back and rupture it.

Others running air that see this, Did you Grind this part down or should it be okay and clear the bag?

Here is air hoses re-ran in the rear to clear all arms. i.e. shorten it and got rid of the slack.

Finally finished Air hose and wire management in the trunk.

All that is left is to dial in the height air'd out and double check airline hoses.

Then have a shop install the E-level sensors that I do not feel confident to install myself.

here's a video my brother did of the car air'd out while he was home and curious
