That's because you guys are using H&R spring. H&R spring ALWAYS lower the rear more then any other springs and that why the fender gap are so much difference. Another thing I didn't like H&R spring, the car rear squad pretty bad under hard acceleration from a stop and it look nasty.

What I mean was, since H&R spring lowered the rear more then the front, the weight distrubated is changed and shift toward the back more and this is why the rear is squad more because of more weight is being shifted toward the back when you excelerate from a dead stop. It even look more worse when you have people in the back seat. I discuss about these ways back then. I'm used ONLY Eibach springand Bilstein struts/shocks on all my past and present Mercedes.

I see what your saying. I guess it's just a matter of taste. Personally the 1.2" drop Eibach gives you all around is not enough for me. Hence the H&R's
Edit: I have yet to put someone in the back since I bought the car

I drive the racism out of BadDebt. ;)
I agree with klinh on the rear SQUAT...not squad...
i had the same problem when i lowered my car with HR springs...and adjustment in the spring pad and a 35 series tire balanced it out...

easy fix...get the the thicker pad in the rear so it will looks balance compare to the front. This is the reason why I asked for the part number for pad #4. Maybe pad #3 will fix idk we will see.

Very nice, what bulbs are you using for the parking lights? I replaced my with some ebay white versions but you can hardly see them. Maybe it just looks this bright in your pictures.
