The wife or the Icons? Sounds like a simple dilema to me.
But what do I know, maybe they're newlyweds.

Keep it AND make your wife install it.

I'm tempted but why 2" and not the 3" lift that most people seem to have gotten?

They are adjustable to 3" but ICON recommends no more than 2.5" of lift. Preset at 2". You'll need the spanner wrench too...

As they say, Its cheaper to keep her!.... talking about the lift kit. My rationale is that in a few months your gonna drop 2700 plus shipping etc and its gonna cost you more!

That's not entirely true. They don't recommend more than 2.5" of lift without aftermarket UCA's. The stage 2 kit has the UCA's so 3" of lift will be fine (that's what I'm running). The coilover is actually capable of 3.5" of lift.

I had a crusty Cheif Master Sgt tell me when I first joined the military,

"Laddy." he said in a raspy Irish/New York accent. "Laddy, you find yourself a girl you can't stand, buy her a car, get her a condo, and give her half of the nothing that you have right now, cuz it is cheaper to do it now, than it will be 15 years from now when you are making money and have expensive stuff."

Sage advice and he didn't even take into account inflation!!

Seriously, we should all boycott this sale and get this guy his lift back!!!! I am, but I already have a lift.

its easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

If I won something that expensive it would definitely go on! Luckily my wife wouldn't even know how much it cost.

. And she wouldn't say anything about keeping it seen that it was FREE!
