Wzup Gary ?
Yeah, I contacted him, but for whatever reason, it did not work out.
Im in the process of getting a set of TEIN S-Tech springs (greens) and a couple other goodies.
Does anyone here have any insight into that set ?

Hopefully I can install everything in the next month or so.

I had S.Techs before. I wouldn't risk buying from ebay cause I heard that they have fake ones on there sometimes.

The ride quality was great, not bumpy. Much reduced body roll and good lowering height. Shouldn't scrape too much if your careful. I wouldn't mind having another set. Highly recommended.

I meant body shop. They're saying it'll be at least $3,500 for the repairs. I don't get my car serviced at Acura anymore. I can't stand any of those service people at Niello anymore.

I didn't used to have problems with them, but now they're all pretentious ass bitches. I guess my best friend is havin' problems with Niello BMW too. So far, the people at Niello Collision Center have been cool though.

I got quoted at Niello Collision. The insurance company is still waiting for the statement from my witness before they make a decision. It better be a pretty open/shut case as I clearly had the right-of-way. But then again when I got rear ended AAA tried saying it was my fault.

What he said. Excellent performance for a spring. Check out my garage here for more pics of expected ride height, stance, etc on my UA6.
