I don't mean to hi-jack your thread but did you have any problems getting your car into alignment with the Eibach springs?
How much did it lower your car?

XCELR8, I 'll check on the springs and sway bars, but I'm pretty sure I have your car....the ride is pretty harsh, or should I say sporty, lol...they have to be on there. The dealer told me that they paid 25,450 for the car. Hold on to that intake, I"ll prob take it off you. Again, very very small chance there is another in the area just like yours that I could have bought w/ the exact miles. P.M. me your number or email address, I'd like to know a bit more about the car, how you took care of her, etc. I'm a huge car enthusiest, and take care of them better than people. Funny you got an IS350, while I just had a 2006 BMW 330i 6mt loaded....but was totalled a month ago...same taste in cars!

^^ you got it man! good to hear my baby went to a good home. *sniff sniff* still makes me sad

yeah, the tires were sort of scalloped in the front and near bald in the back. Carmax said they looked fine... i was like what?? cant believe they didnt replace them for you. I'll give ya my cell too. I can tell you about all the service records also. I put my name in one of the owners manuals. A guy name Jason is in there as orig owner, then I put my name also. Another way you can tell its mine. Its the smaller of the books I think. Look for a pm!

Steel Blue - no prob shop had no issues at all aligning the car. cost about $300 total to have it done. Eibach says it should have dropped 1" but i think it took it more like 1.5.

Did you have to buy any camber kits for the front or rear in order to get aligned properly?

I came from having my 2001 BMW 325i getting totalled to my 2005 G35. This must be the natural progression for car owners.
