Cool

What's up fellow E60ers, thanks for all the responses a few days ago about how WRONG my drop with the eibach prokit + koni fsd's were. I brought it back to my mechanic and we ended up pushing the struts down further, it could have gone down further but looked like it would slam the car too much and the front would not match the rears.. so here it is, let me know if this is about how it should be and if it will at least settle a little more in the back, its only been 2 days!!! thanks!!
