I don't know how much is vmaxx's fault, if anything.. most bumps in the street I hit the whole car sounds like it's getting banged up because the car is almost riding on the bumpstops all the time and the bumpstops hit very easily because there is barely any shock travel at my height. I think that's what's happening at least... I cut like 3/4 of the front bumptops off and it helped some. I'm assuming it's because of the rough ride that loosened a hose under the hood until it fell off. I'm not sure how tight it was to begin with but that caused some problems. my speedometer started bouncing normally not long after I went low; it's probably just be a sensor that's messed up but I haven't looked into it much. my front lower control arm a rear wheel bearing, cv joints, axel and some other things were destroyed. not sure if the banging helped those destroy or if it's just from being low.
vmaxx wouldn't be bad if you're going to be like 24" gtf or higher or if it's not your daily driver. I wish I would have saved up a little more and bought something better.

I've thought about d2 coilovers but I haven't looked into them much. they don't seem too popular but the price looks good

edit:
by the way merry christmas!
I got bored earlier today and experimented with photoshop.. not done and not looking too perfect but I'll share anyway
