Kompressor on H&R coilovers

After 2 months of tracking down all the parts and waiting, I finally have my car lowered on H&R coilovers/new hats/etc. I need some wheels now..

excuse the dirtiness

"annoyance" and "self-righteousness", amoung others...
Looks very good.

How's the ride comfort and handling compare to stock at this point?

If you don't mind me asking, how much did you end up spending $$?

glad you got the parts to finally put it on. where'd you find the locking nuts for the hat? Im assuming it was you that was looking for those right? lol I cant wait to get my Teins back from being overhauled, they said it'd take 4-5 weeks because they have to order the pistons from japan because I have the older coilover model and that would take 7-12 business days just to get those in, guess I'll be riding stock height for a month or two.

I'd say the ride comfort/handling is pretty similar to stock but just a little stiffer. Nothing really noticeable though. I've lowered other cars that were horrible but this is actually really nice.

Honestly, way too much... cost of parts ended up being about 1600-1700.. I'm happy it's finally done though

Yeah, took me a month to get the H&Rs built and shipped to me... I called the place that sold me the hats but they didn't stock the nuts so I just called my local Mercedes dealer (an hour away!) and had them order them for me then I just picked them up. It was a little under $9 for 2 nuts but I'm happy I finally found them.
