Sure i will share
I got an ST XTA ( it‘s KW) KW
The hight is „usable for everyday“..I got plenty of Restgewinde ( means lot of turns to screw down). Maybe next year I will lower it 1,5 cm on front and 2cm rear. Looks great but not usable on the street.
Spacer in front are 20mm from SCC. Before the lowering the same spacers on the rear. After I must switch to 15mm. Or use smaller Wheels (stock 255/35/18—new 245 or less...) Brand of the Spacer must be also SCC. For Germany you need only street legal stuff..
Every change on the car must be in the papers...expensive and complicated.

I used plastidip and I’ve also seen people using regular spray paint, just mask off the middle and spray

They probably get more UW than Caviar but then, Caviar probably gets off the lot quicker than UW also.

Hey. Everything was stock at the time these pics were taken, just plasti-dipped the wheels and the spoiler black(pretty simple job, took me like 2 hrs). And the tints were 30%.
