Ordered some Tein S-tech lowering springs awhile ago and installed them yesterday. Baltothewolf decided to meet me at my brothers and helped me out with the install. Big thanks to him! This type of work always goes smoother with two people.
Here's a few before pics. Forgot to get some pics of the rear before the install, but I'm sure you get the idea.
And after.
I like the ride height a lot better now and it honestly feels just as comfortable as the stock springs.
Next on the list this morning was making a grill block and covers for the original fog light holes.
The plasma cutter makes things a little easier.
I like the raw aluminum look but I think I'm going to paint them black later this week. They seemed to work pretty good though on the drive home this evening. Got 65.93 mpg on the trip home with some minor stop and go traffic. On the same route last week I only got 57.6 mpg with a little more traffic. Hopefully next time I work on it I can finish up the kammback...
