h&r's on the coupe - PeachParts Mercedes-Benz Forum

Lowered my car this past weekend finally. I have had the springs since the beggining of October (got an amazing deal on them used with only 500 miles on 'em) and it had been killing me to see them just sit around. But finally found the time and they look great! Very happy with how much they lowered the car and how much better the handling is. Didn't have a spring compressor so the install was quite fun when trying to realign the lower control arm with the new spring in

Will post some pics later of the new stance

I approve - wheels and everything look sweeeeeet!

Now, there's something wrong with your headlights. They don't seem to be one piece of glass......which is downright killing the look of your car.

I know, I know and the turn signals aren't clear either. Those are taking a back seat though to performance enhancements that should be coming soon.
