well right now as it sits..its a 1.5 drop but their still new and the instructions says after it settles it goes down another 1/2 inch..so total of 2inches once it settles..its set to the softest setting right now as well as my sway bar..drove all day on NY streets and its been fine over speed bumps and drive ways..no rubbing or scraping at all..the only thing i had to remove where the plactic scrape graud and front under plastic panels as some of those would scrape backing out of a driveway but doesnt come close to hurting/damaging anything else so its all good

yea im really happy how it looks now, i actually been at work doing lots of overtime while my car was sitting at my friends house, my friend matt did most the work so def lots of credit goes to him as he did an amazing job finishing this in less then a day..but if anyone is on the fence about the greddy exhaust - def worth it..it sounds amazing, no rasp just deep deep grumble and throaty. i have a bunch of video clips that i will post up tomorrow when i get a chance and def will take many more once the weather gets nicer out

came out to around $900 with shipping (i dont have edfc) - usually cost around $1,100 but matt hooked me up since he knows a guy who deals a lot with tein's for bmw's and got me a good deal on them

lol yea..atleast in queens..the scary part is after we installed them, we had trouble trying to get the car back on the ground..the jacks didnt go low enough to allow them to slide out so i had to use the spare tire jack to raise the back up enough to slide them out..and whats even crazy is it can still go another 1 inch+ lower on them. tein ss coilovers
