Default Finally lowered! (pics)

Well after long anticipation and deciding I finally picked some springs up... I ended up going with the Eibach Pro Kit with the Eibach camber bolts. Installation was simple, easier then the instructions look. We did it in my buddies garage. Before you guys start saying I need new struts ect... I know I know! But other then that it actually rides fine its def. stiffer and can get a little rough on rough roads, and yes it will pull 1 G in a dip lol.

Here are some before pics... the side skirts and rear lip are long gone, well they're hanging up in the garage. I'm just trying to emphasize the wheel gap. It truly looks better in person after I lowered it, pictures don't capture it.





AFTER:









Let me know what you think. Once again, looks better in person.

You will be plenty satisfied, I remember seeing you ask questions in the suspension thread in the handling section. I had a smile the whole way home haha.

No worries I don't care for them much, when it was bought they were on there. They also look better with the center caps, I need to get them back on.

Looks good Eddie!
How many inches did you lower?
Did you use a spring compressor for the fronts?
