wooohoo ben! how does the car look now? is the drop similar to the is350s?
Well, I'll compare after the springs have settled. But I'm pleased at the way it looks now. Not too slammed and no more big gaps, especially in front. Only if the wheels were wider. But thats for another day.
How much did yours get lower when the springs have settled?
i believe it's about an inch or so for the Eibachs SC430 unless the IS can be dropped further. But i think according to the specs, it's about an inch for all models.
Quick question....shouldn't it be cheaper to install/swap springs vs install an entire coilover kit? Or maybe not, since it's the same amount of work? I got a quote to install Tein Basics, and I found it reasonable. But for springs......? I'm new at all this, so just asking!
actually same thing. springs/shocks might take a bit more work, but to mechanics, it's the same amount of work. and actually coilovers could be more work coz' you have to adjust the height, drive, and may have to adjust again, etc...
I went to Exact to have Tein CS installed on my GS300 about 2 weeks ago. John and Sandy are great people and their work are excellent. They went out of thier way to meet my request.(drop me off at work, pick up the car at work, etc) I bought my wheels from another shop, took it back to Exact a week later and John even tuck/roll/ my fender and adjust the height for free. I'm going back their next month for a major tune-up. Just my 2cent....
I too went to Exact about the same time. Maybe late August. John did and excellent job installing Tein CS on my GS300. I am one very satisfied customer for Exact and Tein. Car is lowered and ride quality is the same. (Took my wife out to dinner and she didn't notice a difference in ride quality...Thank god, cuz I didn't tell her that I lowered the car)

since my 90K, I've done 120K at Exact, and now my 150K is coming up and there's no other place i'm going to. Just don't go there while RMMGs4, is there. He'll find a way for you to spend more money on mods...haha

I always say, as long as John's in there doing maintenance, you might as well and throw in some mods!
Hmm.... I don't know what exactly you are trying to do and on which car (I know fender roll and shaving). If the job is serious, I guess you are looking for a good bodyshop.
PM me if you have not yet received any good direction.
