^ That looks like it's just on the surface.

Post the same thing in the wash & wax section and the professional detailers will finalize whether they can be buffed out or not.

simon, how long did it take for the Eibach springs to settle in to the lowest ride height? I just purchased the Pro Kit, am getting it installed Friday and just curious how many days/weeks it takes for it to settle in its lowest position.

Mine settled fully within a few hundred miles. Depending on how much you drive i would say anywhere from 1-3 weeks. , btw good choice!

cool thanks! I only drive it about 25 miles a week on average, but luckily there is an Acura meet this weekend, so I'll have to drive about 70 miles each way to attend it. I'm hoping it settles in time for the meet but worst case, i should be settled by the time I make it home.
