Stage 1 - Complete

First stage of mods have been completed....

A couple of shots for your perusal!




For those who have fitted Eibach and don't get the drop you wanted I can confirm the H&R springs really do deliver!

Next stage is a front spoiler and finally do the de-chrome.....

How much of a drop do the H&R springs give?

Sits lovely on those wheels though!

They were 60/40, I got them off Chris on here.

I was dubious they would give as much of a drop but they definitely have. I'm actually hoping it doesn't settle any further!!

I'm really pleased with the stance the wheels have given....

Lovely. Did you add the boot spoiler, too? I've done the same on mine (plus debadged) and it really finishes the back end off well.

I did yes, like you say really finishes off the back end whilst still remaining subtle!!

Beautiful mate, the concavity is spot on! Love those wheels - what are they called and where did you buy them out of interest!? As suggested, a drop would do just right!

Car looks spot on. Love the wheels been looking for a second hand set of these as i want to be abit bold and change the colour so its pointless me buying new.

Hows the ride on H&R springs?

I’ve gone for non RFT’s so I think that has helped, the ride is obviously harder but not unbearable. The handling is better and more direct. Personally i think its a good balance between cost, style and handling....

I’m glad I kept the wheels now as they came off my Dad’s E90 and i bought them off him when he traded it in. They’ve actually changed colour more times than i care to think about! I'm not 100% happy with them as I wanted them a bit brighter but in the end I just wanted them on the car!!

A couple of normal pictures....




Really pleased with the final ride height. Although I can see how the H&R springs are too hard for some on UK roads!
