Arrow Post Pics of Your After Market Springs
I can't believe someone hasn't already done this but here goes.

Everyone who has After market springs on their car post up a pic so the rest of us can get an idea of how each kit looks on a car. Please post the type of springs you have and how long they have been installed. Thanks! :D

your VB garage lists that your car is on coilovers, and the pictures of the car look pretty low (lower than what I expected for the .8" lowering of the MS springs). Do you have any updated pics with the springs, also what shock are you running?

I'd say post whatever you have, just make sure you say what it is.

OT: Wedge how come in your first post your brakes are silver but in the other post they're red? Along w/ some of you others, red? Painted? Aftermarket?

Back on topic: Nice drops, makes me wanna get some springs.
