Looks great! I think I like those even better than the CSLs and I love the CSLs.

I had been following a lot of your posts on suspension/wheel choices before I pulled the trigger.

Hey Nick! Thanks I'm glad with the way it came out.

Have your springs settled? I checked all around now and its one finger for the fronts, a little less for the rears. One finger = ~ 5/8".

Hey Deepak,

Nice setup!

Where did you get the Eibachs and they are the Pro-kits right? Stock dampers?

Make sure you get the right springs in the box! Don't want you to go through what I went through.

Looking for lowering springs myself.

These look very good in the front, but a bit on the low side in the rear, I think.
1cm / 0.3" higher would be nice.

Going crazy searching for pictures of cars with different suspension setup...

You can add an extra rear bumpstomp to help raise the rear a bit.

A friend also told me that yesterday. I wasn't aware of it before.

I'm seeing Eibachs in the near future
