Default another xB, from UTAH.

Hello all,

My name is Nik. I am an Air Traffic Controller and I live in Ogden, UT.

On June 31, 2012, I picked up a 2006 PW - MT - bone stock xB.

Here she is.



Bone stock, missing lower grills, scuffed up steelies and hubcaps.
Sad, but I knew she had potential.

So, that night I purchased a set of coilovers and an Axle-back Exhaust from a good friend that lives here in Utah that used to be a member of the forums.

After installing those items she sat like so:



I was then a part of a pre-order for some brand new wheels that were just being released:



Then my wheels and tires were joined together in holy matrimony.




Then I met Karl Malone at the dealership where I bought my xB:



Then I painted my tail lights:



Then I finally replaced my two lower grill inserts:



Then installed the tail lights and rear bB emblem



Then I waited days upon days upon days for my REALcamber camber kit to arrive.



Then in about 2 hours, me and a friend managed to put on the camber and roll all four fenders to make it to a show that night!



Annnnd this is how she sits as of 21 July 2012 (3 weeks later ).



















She needs some fine tuning, and camber bolts up front.. but it sits pretty nice. I'm going to end up running more camber up front for a more balanced look, and I will be going lower all around.

Thanks for reading.

- Nik
