I love your M. I have AWD so I'm just doing Eibachs. Any tips or advice you can share to save me some time when installing the rear springs? Pics would be nice. I've read you have to remove all the back seat. Does the trunk lining have to come out also? Thanks.

Word of advice the Eibachs on the AWD M does not drop it enough. We wound up cutting a coil off of it to get a decent drop from them.

Hey Kenny, huge fan of your M37! Just picked up one myself in Platinum Graphite a couple weeks ago.
Just a couple questions for you man, is it a pain in the *** to drive around as slammed as you are? Like how slow do you really have to drive since you're static?
Do you get a lot of pissed off drivers and get honked at a lot?
Sorry for the noob questions lol but looking forward to lowering my M37 some, your ride has definitely been an inspiration.
Thanks!

No need to touch the trunk at all. The rear set is simple to remove with one person but make sure your greasy hands do not touch the top headliner when trying to remove the seat out of the car (from experience).

Good to know thanks. The rear seat was easy to remove. I'm having a problem getting the rear shocks out though. The axle housing doesn't seem to drop enough to get all tension off the shock. Is there a trick to getting them out? I remove the bolt and the 3 on the shock tower but I can't get the shock free from the axle housing.
are you doing it on a lift or just with jackstands????
