Installed Koni FSD + Eibach Pro Kit in my W203. Review + Pics

Hey guys, I had my Koni FSD's + Eibach Pro Kit installed in my C200 Kompressor a couple days ago..

I must say I'm very happy with the results, the ride quality in normal streets is not way different compared to the oem's in my case (my C200 had standard suspension, not sport), even though ride quality increased for about 20% in potholes and uneven roads.

Pull it hard and it's amazing how these shocks work, its almost like a fancy sensation, they become strong and stiff, body roll decreased in about 60% and the car feels very strong and sporty when you want it to and comfortable when you need it.

I can't think in better shocks at the moment for this car, also had the kit installed in my e39 and the results are awesome as well.

A few pics of the new ride height (30mm lower).
Any comments on my car looks will be appreciated.

Car looks great, but I swear w203s have the least lowering via lowering springs in the world. I wish someone would aftermarket springs for our cars and the whole car down to just a finger gap all around :x

W203 200K
I bought Bilstein B12 Pro-Kit for my 2001 year W203 C200K. Rear Eibach spring have tighter winds but I don't know of direction of rear Eibach springs. And after installation my car is shaking so much on rough road. I can not find any guide about Eibach springs. Can you help me about installation please? Sorry for my English, I am from Azerbaijan.
