installed 15mm spacers in the rear...

eibach pro kit lowering springs are starting to settle in more. I got an offer to test the BC coilovers but really don't want to lose the handling. I would go VIP but it defeats the purpose of me keeping this as a family car.

I also added Ichiba v2 15mm spacers in the rear so the wheel sits more flush with the fender in the rear.

updating fogs to brighter lights means more attention to cops at nighttime driving

install was pretty easy... just took longer to take apart the rear seats, you can't go through the trunk.

alignment shouldn't have any problems at all.... Eibach unfortunately is your only choice at the moment which doesn't drop much as you can see from the picture.

never drop just the front or just the rear... it's meant to stay in pairs....

the Eibach springs actually have about 2 more coils versus the OEM M37 Sport springs....

so you have to make sure you install the frnot and rears
