Hehe, a photoshoot will follow, but here!






I spent a little time adjusting it, but the fronts I will lower a little more.

Thanks for your help tonight! Little complications but we worked it out

Thanks folks. After adjusting the suspension more than I wanted, I was done for the night, it was like 1am and SHOLEXMAN and I went on a little drive. Its impressive. It honestly feels like stock. A little firmer but doesnt teeth chatter like normal coilovers do. I still have an EASY 2" to drop on the fronts. It had way too much camber so we turned it up til I can get an alignment. The rears I think I can get another 1" or so, I didnt really check, it had a great drop after the 2nd try so I left it.

Yes these are Bilstein Hypercoils.

looks really good Matt! glad to hear the ride is very close to stock, our prayers have been answered, a suspension setup that lets us drop but not sacrifice ride quality. I am all over this setup soon!
