Thumbs up I cut my springs and this is how it came out
NOT!!


So i finally got my Skunk2 Springs installed yesterday. All I can say is wow, the drop is amazing. I'm completely in love with my car all over again. The ride is still pretty smooth, just on really bad bumps you can feel them a lot more than when riding at stock height.

I haven't really tested them out in the corners yet so no say on how much the handling has improved. At first when it was just finished installed, I thought man... this might be too low.... but then after driving it around it perfect.

Here are some before shots.




After






one finger in the front


one finger in the back




Again this was just installed yesterday so it hasn't settled yet.

Thanks again udumkid for the install....

You had me with the thread title, glad to see you got some real springs and didn't cut the OEM ones.

Looks like you need a rear camber kit though, Skunk2 also makes those

I was pretty worried with that thread title... I'll believe anything on this forum after seeing the time attack rip-off hubcaps lol

Looks like a pretty damn good drop tho. I'm sure your shocks will love it.
