Lowered my S today
So I finally decided to go ahead and lower the S. Took it down to my buddy's shop and he did it with the washer method. Here are the pics

Thanks guys I love the way it looks. And it only made the ride just a little bit more firm over bumps but nothing crazy.

So I went a bit lower in the front and raised the back a little bit. This is as low as the front will go using washers in the front. The back gets lower but it doesn't look good makes the car look saggy. I think It looks better like this. Also funny pic of some ugly dude on a bike
