Hmmm.... I havn't heard anything about them being nixed....
I was gonna get them. :^(  How harsh are they? I was talking to the guys 
from Ground Control over the weekend and I was impressed by their 
product, but I don't wanna run their solid upper mounts (I don't think 
their legal for Street Prep anyway).  
It's a little off the subject, but what rate springs are people running 
with these? What upper mounts? What shocks? I have been TRYING to do my 
GLI the right way the first time, but that never works...  ;^)
Thanks!
