Default Mike did all the work......4 wheel alignment will be done 3/21...

but I don't notice any difference in driving right now. I'm going to have the headlights realigned on 3/21 also, unless it looks like something I'll do myself.

Default Did your springs settle at all? I'm at 5 days and about 300 miles...

and they are the same hight they were when they left the shop. Did you have to realign your headlights? Did you do it yourself?

Default They're sitting in the basement, cleaned up and packed ...

away in the Eibach Pro System box in case I ever need them for anything.

Default If I didn't have the PSK bar, I would have gone with the sway bar kit also....

and yes, that is a nice shade of blue!

Default Thanks!.....the mighty Boston Driver is pleased, what more could I ask for!

I'll have to check out Stoney's on the headlights. I did a quick search the other nite when I noticed how lower the beams were, but I'll have to spend some more time on it.

I think the 4.2 blades are next...

Default They look very similar....can't say I saw any wear...

but I'm assuming they are not expensive, and I'd just assume have new ones in there to begin with since the overall job isn't cheap. I don't want to take it apart 3 years from now because I didn't replace the bump stop.

Default what i'm asking is, is the location of the bumpstop different?

on another car i workedo n, we had to cut the bumpstops because the shock travled further than oem, and it rode like crap since the shock kept hitting the bumpstop

im wondering if thats the case on the audi
