How do you like the springs? I have an 04 with the same wheels and want to lower it a tad, make it a tiny bit stiffer, but not punishing because I drive A LOT and MN roads are awful...

Oh, and it looks great!

I love them man; the ride height is perfect IMO; I did notice a little bit of see-saw motion on huge bumps going too fast; but for cornering and whatnot, feels even a bit BETTER than stock.

Thanks man; I love her!

That's one clean G there. I like how the blacked-out grille blends with the rest of the body paint (should've been made factory for all black G's)

That looks great! Did you upgrade the struts at the same time, or just leave the OEM ones in? Also, are you running spacers on the wheels? They look a little pokey for stock coupe offsets.

running stock struts for almost a year now with no problems... it was less than a 2" drop so Im not anticipating any huge problems... I'm thinking of switching to coilovers this summer; I'm just not sure.

As for Spacers, there ain't none just swapped the coupe wheels onto the car and that's what I got. I was considering maybe a 10mm in the rear to make it perfectly flush... dunno if it's really worth it though, it's pretty much flush as it is.

Thanks for all the compliments guys. and I'll let you all know how blacking out the headlights goes; assuming the wife allows it!

PS, I'm from Ottawa.
