looks great... damn i really need to lower my coupe too!

i was quoted at two places for a springs install at 800. i can't imagine paying for coilovers and installing... it'll run over 2 G's. maybe in a few months i'll do it

btw... you should color match the 3 slats in the center of your grill to match the dark gray in the spokes of your rims

Looks sharp...perfect stance! Can you get through a MI winter with that ride height?

Love that color. Kinda matches my eyes when they're not red!

Thanks guys.
It might be a problem in the winter so I will have to raise it up. That is the reason I went for the coilovers. The only problem I had so far is a little rub on the left rear wheel. I am still not sure what it is but I think it's just the carpt covering that inner fender. It only rubs when I make sharp right turns and if go over biger pot holes.
The ride is stiffer but not unconfortable. It feels a lot smoother than the H&R cup kit I had on my Jetta. I love it. The wheels help a lot too.
ASP is next.

I love it. I think you need to change your front tires from what I can see though. Maybe it's just me though.

The tires only have about 600 miles on them. It's the picture.
