Search the forum, there are a bunch of threads on the tips. I don't have any pics since I just ordered them.

Glad to hear you're finally addressing the wheel shake, I still have to order my rear control arms (have the ball joints). I think the new tires helped eliminate some vibration/roughness from the road though.

I decided to go with chrome.

Enabled the feature that allows each key to trigger a different seat memory setting when the doors are unlocked. This also sets the steering wheel, mirrors and the climate control. Done with a friend's Autologic.

Installed these! Even though my front right was perfect, I figured I just as well do 'em both.

If anyone wants a front right air spring with 30K on it, let me know!

yeah - gotcha. I dont think I have a stock 3.0 exhaust on my car then. I already have an oval, but its coming right out of the resonator. I need to post a picture. I want chrome tips like those, but I dont think I can short of really re-doing it.
