I8ABMR, I think the car looks great and the new rims really shine!
New exhaust looks amazing too.

Youre running Tein H-techs I think I remember. they have set in nice, it has shown me that those are the springs I will go with. I really cant have rubbing with the amount of driving I do for work and I need to keep a professional image with the car.

You will like the springs. Once they set in they will leave you with about a finger and a half gap. This leaves you some suspension travel , therefore a better ride than with the tanabe springs. I do alot of driving as well and I also need to maintain a professional image. They work perfectly
