Talking Springs installed

Finally decided to do the springs myself after getting quotes for install of 275 to 350. Me and a couple friends decide to tackle the job ourselves. After doing the first front spring in about 2 hours (breaks and runs to the store included) we found the errors in our ways and some shortcuts and were able to finish the other 3 in about 1.5 hours .

These are the H&R sports and I love the drop and the ride is not compromised much at all. So far so good.

doing it yourself is much better than paying crazy prices. It's not super hard at all.

here are the pics. Click on the springs folder.

That's a good question. It just depends on what you want more.

Thanks

Your car looks sweet w/the springs and kit. I have the kit and really want the H&Rs but havent bought them yet, until I can find someone to install them (reasonably priced) maybe I'll try and do it myself.

Thanks. The C32 belongs to my friend. And that's an M5 by the way. It belongs to another friend. I was in their neighborhood!
