Thumbs up BMR lowering springs installed!

Finished them up today! wound up having to replace both front struts, and both sway bar endlinks, but no big deal, mine were are fucked up anyway. but this is the BMR 1" drop lowering springs. i LOVE the way it sits now. before this the rear had a HUGE fender gap. now it sits perfect for my taste.

yeah i know. originally i only wanted to lower the rear but decided it might be uneven, so i just went with the whole kit and couldnt be happier! definitally the best stance lowering springs i have ever seen.

i had the eibach sportline i think? the car was WAY too low and looked kinda shitty. these are perfect

the rear has KYB adjustables. but the fronts are cheapo gabriels. i needed them asap and they were the only ones that CAME with the lower spring perch. every where else napa, advance auto, pep boys, they sell monroe stabilitracks or some ****. they dont even come with the lower perch! you have to pay an extra 50 bucks per side for the kit. plus the 120 bucks for each strut. pain in the ***. but its all good now. ill upgrade to better shocks/struts in the future.
