I can't believe you threw away those springs!



Seriously though, before I tossed everything other than the body I broke the shock towers and took off the springs. Might find some use for them. The funny thing was, the springs on that thing do absolutely nothing! They were never intended to compress at all....No suspension movement on the New Bright.

I cut them off after the pic, I though the same thing, but after I compressed them in my hand and they didn't spring back I threw them away too. they're not springs, just coiled metal
