Put the springs on my car last night, but havent replaced the struts yet. The ride height is exactly where I wanted it to be and you can feel a big difference in the stiffness of the ride. Still comfy for cruising, but much less body roll in the turns. Next will be the strut tower bars and Koni down the road!!! Ill post pics of the drop a little later.


On a more f&*%@ed up note... Some lil shit keyed my trunk just under the lip.

Awsome post photo when ever possible. I was thinking of the same thing with my non sport, but didn't want to install unless I was going to replace shocks and strut at the same time to save cost.

You can. Umnitza sells the front spoiler lip for the M5Tech kit. Im thinking about getting it as well. Here is the link. http://www.umnitza.com/index.php?mai...oducts_id=5649

The problem is only Umnitza makes the front lip for the M5tech front.
