Default SC430 Suspension Options

Do any of you SC430 owners out there have aftermarket suspension on your car? If so, what type do you have (springs, springs/shocks combo or coilovers)? Also, how much of a drop did it give you?

Gene,

How much is the L-sportline suspension? Is it made for the SC430 or did you use the GS version (I haven't seen the L-sportline suspension specifically for the SC430)?

What size wheel are you going to be running when you drop to 1.75?

Thanks

Wow, your car must look awesome! It's going to look sick when you go to the Magnifiques (I guess it will look exactly like the picture Manaray posted). I think 20's are the way to go (I'd do 20x8.5 up front) and defintely in chrome especially on a black car. I'm sure it will look awesome either way.

Could you let me know where you bought the suspension from?

By the way, is this what your car looks like now?

After that..I'm done
Famous last words! Gene, if you leave your AutoCouture Silver (and NEVER chrome them), I'll take you out to dinner at Ruth's Chris Steak House in Beverly Hills...
