KW V3 C63, DONE!!!
Good morning guys!
We just finished Qship5's C63 last week and I wanted to share the pics. Not only is his car a track monster but it's also slammed...
I am sure he will follow with some more pics!
Enjoy

Looks nice but FAR from being "slammed", that term gets thrown around too much...whenever anyone lowers their car 0.5-1" they think it's "slammed", you at least have to be tuckin' tire to be considered slammed.

MBWorld Fanatic!
How did you remove the rear springs:
1) Disconnect lower shock bolt, lower sway bolt, lower knuckle bolt and then use jack to lower?
or
2) Disconnect lower control arm bolt from where it attaches to the subframe and then use jack to lower?
Awesome shop. Gotta love those in-ground lifts.

Great pics Adam! Thanks to the entire team at Autoscope for the install. I just love the way the car sits now.
I'll be tweaking settings on the KWs to find an ideal setup for street use and one for track use, but as things are set right now it is a beast on the track and still offers a compliant ride.

Wider, stickier tires, Renntech tune, 2 piece rotors and now coilovers.... I love your mods! 
Looking forward to your impressions of the KW's vs stock suspension.

Regarding the intall...
I performed the install. I pulled the exhaust off because there was not enough clearance for the inboard lower control arm bolt to come out. There's one close-up picture of the RR suspension and on the very left side you can see the spline drive bolt I'm talking about.

2) Remove bolt from bottom of damper.
3) Remove inboard bolt from lower control arm.
4) Take compressed spring out and let control arm hang from bolt at bottom of knuckle.
Thanks! It is a very sweet shop. It's a pleasure to work here.

1) Use spring compressor to take the pressure off of the lower control arm.
2) Remove bolt from bottom of damper.
3) Remove inboard bolt from lower control arm.
4) Take compressed spring out and let control arm hang from bolt at bottom of knuckle.
