question about lowering car...
I have heard that you can buy the eibach pro kit for a c230 which is between 2-3 hundred and cut a half inch off the front to make it sit better.
I dont like the look of, even when i get a car lowered the front still appears to be about a half inch too high.
Is there any kits out there for these car that are in the same price range that will make the car sit very well.
I would buy a coilover kit but they are just too much money for me to be spending.
Also which spring kit can i buy that will drop my car the most. Looks like h&R drops it the most, also it looks like people cut an inch off the fronts. Is an inch too much or will it give it that totally dumped look.
I just dont want to go too low that it will make this car be a hassle rather than a great car to drive around.
Please help me out i must know soon. i am buying this car at the end of the week and i am lowering it right away.
Thank you for your help.
