C63s Coupe - KW HAS
Hi Friends,
Got my KW sleeve kit done and picked up the car yesterday.
I've lowered it 15mm in the front & 20mm in the rear - I'll adjust it higher or lower depending on how it goes in the next week. I didn't want the front to scrape too much.
Overall stance of the car looks much more aggressive now - I also added spacers 15mm & 12mm (so the wheels don't looked tucked in).
The daily drive feels the same... maybe 10-15% firmer but as my daily it's not that noticeable.
I'll be getting wheels, once I figure out the ones I want! haha
Anyone in Sydney, Australia - Hit up Stu at BMR Autowerkes (They did an outstanding job).
Here are some pictures
The day I picked up the car (3 weeks) and now!
Rear sitting nice and flush... those wide fenders really help!
That rear shot!
How it should come from Affalterbach! haha

hey man, stance looks great! Do you get any rubbing at all with the current setup?
Also if you do upgrade your wheels then let me know as I'd be interested in your current rims (as long as those rears are 20's)
Located in Gold Coast so close enough to do a deal and use it as an excuse for a road trip

Sanch.... Looking really good mate
Was hoping you couldn't tell the difference in ride quality, but I think
that's just wishful thinking.

Looks amazing mate !!!
Congrats the drop is perfect imo .. it will also settle over the next month.
Any lower is just not practical for Sydney roads mate, end up with more stress driving around. Love it dude !!.
Cheers

Very long mate but all forgotten as I'm absolutely enjoying every moment behind the wheel. I've removed the yellow decals, getting tint done this weekend.
Suspension and wheels are here, I'm just waiting on a few other bits for the wheels to arrive, they will be on as soon as they arrive.
A quick teaser
Will definitely organise a breakie run soon after mate. I'm glad the ride hasn't changed much.

Thanks Sanch, cant wait ...
No issues with decals as I haven't let the car sit in the sun that long since purchase. I've heard of holograms staying on against the matte paint with some removals so opted to do it early rather than later... Took about 2 hours as I took my time with it. Used an adhesive remover followed by Nanolex cleaner and sealant. I'll get our mate Richard on it once the mods are completed.
