Lowered car with RS*R springs

[SLV_DB7]

I lowered my car yesterday with a set of RS*R springs and eibach pro dampeners, came out pretty good. RS*R specs show a 2" front and 1.7" rear drop

I'm no photographer, but here are some pics

lip, paint the grille + rear diffuser black, remove the pinstripes. everything else looks nice.

what are you planning to do with the holes on the trunk?

 

[SLV_DB7]

I'm putting a new emblem back in the trunk, when i bought the car the emblem was gone. I wanted to remove the pinstripe, but upon closer inspection they are painted on the grill and diffuser paint is a good idea and i will go about doing that, and of course a lip is probably first on the list.

Thanks guy's

I have Tokico shocks and springs and have absolutely no problem with them at all, it rides great. My car is a DD.

 

[imcnblu]

as far as Tokico, some love them, some hate them. i fall into the latter. for a DD, they aren't too bad. but definitely can't handle too much abuse, or anything more than a "conservative" drop.

I'm dumped on Koni's using Ground Control Coilovers and, save from being a LITTLE harsh (due to the aggressive spring rates) the ride is awesome. handle's absolutely amazing. body roll? what is this "body roll" you speak of?

 

[SLV_DB7]

Sounds like a sweet setup.

When it comes down to it, i'll see what the budget allows, and read reviews of all the options. I really want a set of adjustables, so we'll see.

Thats understandable. I couldnt go too low as I live in a rural area and MO also has crap for roads. I will admit I still have a little body roll but that is only when I am really pushing it. It really just depends how low you want to go. I spend like 450 for shocks and springs brand new. I do understand where you are coming from though :thumbs up
