Just finished installing the MM lowering spacers, had the 2003rc51 donut spacer before but it wasn't low enough, had a rake which IMO only belongs on muscle cars. Now all four corners are tucked ~1/2 in. with h&r springs...no pics since it's dark.....the other thing I will add is with the donut spacer the rear was very stiff going over bumps due to the shocks pumping back up...not anymore ![Happy](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_stretch.gif)
Thanks MM!
Quick question though, my only concern now is theres basically a hole where the shock goes into the car that can lead to water/dirt/etc getting into the trunk....any advice for filling that void? My only though was to glue the bump stop to the bottom plate of the MM spacer. Any suggestions welcome.

if you feel its a lil bouncy cut that bumpstop. i had too cuz my ride is slammed.
JJSimon: nothing is needed for the front, only lowering springs. the MM spacers are for the rear shocks only
