Working on a W210

[jbaker1121]

That sucks man I had the same issue when I bagged my gti, it was an older model vu-4 and the actual body had so much damage accuair couldn't rebuild it. Buy those guys are pretty cool over there they took care of me even though I didn't purchase the unit new. Just talk to them, they will get you straight.

On a better note the car is dope man. I'm in the process of bagging my e430 as well and this is pure motivation.

The guys over at Accuair are awesome! They did whatever it took to get my car up and running again.

and thanks! I can't wait to see the progress you make on yours. If you ever have any questions, feel free to ask!

I finally got my VU4 back from Accuair, and they didn't fix my problem. One corner wasn't airing up, so I sent it in back in April. When I put the VU4 back in yesterday, it still wasn't airing up.

Dope! I've been following this thread for awhile. Is there anyway you can get better pics of the bag mounts?

I'll see if I can get better pics once the car is up and running again!

How long does it usually take for Accuair to rebuild? When I first talked to them, they said it would take a day or two to finish the rebuild and have it sent back to me, so I figured it would be about a week of down time. I haven't had my VU4 for over 2 weeks, and they still haven't sent it back.

UPDATE: THE CAR IS OFFICIALLY BAGGED

Here's how the trunk looks:

Bought my VU4 used, and had to send it to Accuair after my first show because it needed to be rebuilt

Front bracket setup:

While me and my friend were working on it:

Right when I got her home. The rear cups needed to be cut about an inch shorter though.

Here's the show me and my friend were prepping for. By the end of the day, my rear passenger bag wasn't airing up lol

Glad to see you still have this thing!

Thanks man! I love this thing lol. Just got it on air actually!

You go to Merced?! I live in Merced. It's weird seeing people from such a big website actually living close to me. Just stumbled across your build. Looks good

Yessir! Come out to an Atwater meet or one of these local Lowes meets and say hi!

The car scene in Central California is a lot bigger than I expected lol

UPDATE: stuff came in!

The day I got everything, I tossed the tank and compressor in the trunk to see how it would look

Airlift D2500 bags and 3/8" line

Didn't like the black steel tank that came with everything, so I went over to becausebags and got myself an aluminum tank that I was gonna buy down the road anyways

Then I had fknprints wrap the tank and print me some vinyls to share

Had some brackets fabbed in SoCal by Raymond over at Air Ride Equipment

Just bought a VU4, so now I'm just waiting for that and an AVS controller to come in so that I can start on the install
