Armani, are you happy with your kit? Was it easy to install and how low did you go?

I don't know yet. Unfortunately we were hit with about a foot of snow therefore I haven't taken my car out of the garage for several weeks so far. Apparently it'll be staying there for a while but I plan on doing a 2" drop in the front and a 1.2" drop in the rear. As you can see in one of my pictures my front sits alot higher than the rear. Is that normal with all S-classes?

It's a few pieces of hardware that replaces the long-range airmatic brackets (2 on the front suspension, 1 on the rear differential)with shorter ones.

I just got one. PM me if you're interested in more detail.

Still have my RB Tech kit sealed in the bag. I'm considering a trade-in for an '02 s55 now. If anyone is interested in my RB Tech kit, PM me, I might let it go for $250.

PS: it's just too *%#* cold to snap any car pics, although last week I had a chunk of slush frozen to the chrome mesh on my lorinser spec. edition side skirts - a humbling experience..
