Suspension question... Please please help!

I want to slam my CLK430 and the cup kit just isnt low enough for me. I wish they had a coilover kit for the CLK, anyway how are you guys slamming your car (Bruce and Dronellis)? What combo are you using? How many coils did you cut? Thanks guys!

Unfortunately there isn't a coilover kit for our cars, the only way to lower the car a bit more than what lowering springs give us is to cut the springs, I cut the springs exactly one coil, rolling fenders is necessary after cutting springs to void rubbing. After I cut my springs the front bumper is about 3" off the ground which is a bit harder to drive but it sure looks a lot better(RS front bumper). I'm sure Felix will tell you to cut 2 coils
