No problem. Looks great Chris! I am glad that you are happy with the springs.

don't worry about the dirt; it washes off. lol.

looks just like mine...

except mine is in tungsten pearl, and i don't have x-package rims or the blue overlays on my fogs.

looks good though.

Congrads on the springs! Car looks much better IMO.

How does it feel driving it?

Your welcome Glad I could be of help!

feels like the same so far...hopefully when the spring settled it will be more stiffer than my sport suspension, i just recently replaced my rear tires last week, im kinda still breaking in my tires, coz it feels very slippy... but yeah i liked it alot. oh i have question real quick...do i really have to wait for a couple of weeks for my alignment? i have lifetime alignment at firestone..i'm thinking taking my car this weekend. what about the spring? if the spring settled, does the car will look more lowered than now? or what i see, is what it is? knda thinking that seems like not lowered enough...i'm just curious.. thnx again guys..

What springs did you get?? The springs will settle a little over the next few weeks, so your drop should increase a little. Can you take a pic of the entire car from the side so we can how it looks? Thanks.

I would give it 2 weeks. I waited close to 2 mos on my car and had no issues. Maybe go in 2 weeks and then go back in a month just to make sure its all in line Yes it will settle in a few weeks or so give it a little more time.

I just put on 20mm Ichiba Type II spacers on the rear and it planted the car! IF you are not getting aftermarket rims "or" waiting this will make a big difference with the car lowered and how it handles. Feel like the rear is planted more in the turns. Just measure as I have rolled fenders so you may only be able to get 15mm but will still work and look much better. I have 15mm on the way for the front and will see how they do. I am actually happy enough as is but since I paid for them already I am just going to try them out. If the front doesnt need them I will sell the 15mm to someone on here.

Looks good, even better once it settles!

I'm dropped on stock 18"s and recently ordered the same spacers as Passnu2.

I got so sick of not having flush wheels and don't plan on getting rims any time soon (if ever) so I had to have these.
