Pics of car after Eibach/Bilstein install...

Here are a few pictures taken before the install:

See if you can notice the ride height difference in the rear:

My opinion honestly? Or just to make you happy?

It definitelly looks better. Better than perhaps mine. But if dropping it, i would drop it a bit more.

Still looks much better.

I actually agree with you..

I think it would have looked better slightly lower... maybe another 1/2" But with the money already put in it, it'll have to stay the way it is.

That's the reason I never installed my Eibachs. Just not low enough to be worth the trouble...

Well I think it was definitely worth the trouble....

It looks much better than stock. I had considered coilovers, but I really didn't need the adjustability that it offers, and with my limited knowledge of suspension systems, it seemed just too much for me to mess with, plus the added cost. I had considered the VMAXX, but didn't want to be the pioneer with them and with their non-lifetime warranty, I felt between the two, the Eibach/Biltein's would be better for me. I'm hoping that the suspension will settle a little more as I drive (I've only put about 25 miles on it so far), but if not, I'm still happy with where it is... I just would have been happier if it were slighly lower. However, any lower would require some more monetary investment into the other 1/2 KMAC.

Re: Deffinitelly worth the investment.

It's definitely still a big difference. With the shots I took from a distance it's definitely hard to tell, but if you look at the close-up before pic and the close-up after, it made a big difference. With the current drop, I can just get two fingers between the top of the tire and the fender... And that's at a slight angle. With stock, I could get my whole hand between there.
