That's riding high compared to your W202 It looks good, with it that low it makes the CL look SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO long

I like it

Looking good..... is it just the photos or does the front need to come down just a tad more ?

What are you using to get this low and do you still plan on going even lower ???

I'm on adjustable links. I plan on using links and a module so I can go extremely low when I feel like it

As for the height, it's perfect for me. I am not a fan of rake, never been, and I understand that the rear wheel well arch is slightly lower than the front. Just my style!

Looks great! How do you like the links as far as adjustability? I'm not familiar with MFR. Do you need to take them on and off to adjust or are they like GHOST links where you just turn the body?

They pop in and out. Easy

Vic: I know, it's on the to-do list. I don't believe EvoSport has Tectite Grey corners, at least their website does not show it.

Going back to MRF for the alignment later this week. The rear tucks, the front is a few millimeters from tucking.

Definitely firmer. Feels like it's on coilovers. I think when the module comes in I will make my daily height slightly higher and have this be a cruising height.

Perfect size tires, same as I am running.

What ride height setting was the photos taken at ?

What ride height setting do you drive around on ?

Do you drive in comfort or sport mode ?

PS - I made the question more clear
