Installed my coils and spacers today. Didn't go that low, want to get use to it before I drop it any more. Ride is pretty good. Im going out of town for a week so it will have some time to settle :)

Installed the front lip today. Looks good, now I just need to wash her!



Also ordered 034Motorsport Strut Mounts, my stock ones are making horrible noises with the new coils. They will be here next Tuesday. Once I put them in I will lower it some..

Do you have any non-filtered shots of the cherry red on csg? Instagram shots screw color up so bad can't tell what they look like! Trying to decide what color myself...
