if you just lowered it, be patient, the car will eventually settle.

eibach springs are not meant to slam your car, just to minimize wheel gap. park your car next to a stock g37 and you will see the difference better

Sam, I knew there was something strange about your car, It must be this 4x4 look.... Maybe the gravity is different over there? yeah, you must be on Eibachs.

I think the G looks great on Eibachs. It definitely can be made to look good lower, but totally slammed is nasty IMO.

Like others have said Eibachs aren't made to slam the car, just get rid of the gap. You want to talk about 4x4? Looks at a stock G

Beautiful Sam! I love the look of the drop with the Eibach's and the difference in the drive is nice. Coilovers in the future but eibach's are great for now.

I'm happy with my Eibachs.... I can agree that aesthetically, it would look better about 1-2 inch lower.

there is too much peer pressure going on here. it's like, if you don't have your shiz lowered it's crap or something.... i disagree. i think people should leave the gap b/c that's what's best for the car.
