Sat afternoon. original post was in the sticky thread of this year's spring BBQ

AHM99 · 03-31-2008, 08:15 AM

i got a question.
are those cars on stock suspenssion or its aftermarket?

i'm asking because i'd love to lower (1"-1.5") my E90 (non-sport), but i don't want to make it any stiffer, may be little bit.
i'm thinking about getting ZSP, but i'm not sure if its low enough.

Paul and myself are on stock (sports package) suspension.
Same for Bimmernupe I think.
Paul is thinking on dropping it.
I have no plans on dropping mine.

Love those headlights Franko ---

I'm looking for a solution to get rid of those ambers myself. Yours aren't vinyl overlays are they? Euros?

Thank you for your reply.
I think ZSP height looks low enough for me, I might still do little bit more lurking around to see other photos from different angles before I make my decision.

Thanks. Those are MDS82 (Marc) Silver CF headlights.

I tried **********s smoke overlays and those were so so.
I then bought the silver CF overlays but never installed them.
Euros were too expensive.
Marc's solution worked out fine.

Most people ask me if I dropped the car.
Paul's car gap at front is more noticeable. But I think we have about the same gap.

AHM99 · 03-31-2008, 09:47 AM

what car is Paul's car?

Silver one with the dirty M6 rims.

IMO if your going to drop the car, its best to go w/ a full coilover system. Its much more expensive, but the car will handle better, ride better, look better, and be fully adjustable for both height and stiffness.

Here is mine on KW V2 coilovers w/ the same size wheels as the 2 previous cars, just different style. The coilover system is only set on my car for a "moderate" drop, it can down almost another full 2" if you want a fully slammed car, which I dont.

sorry for the mini threadjack, just wanted to give him the info he seemed to be looking for

AHM99 · 03-31-2008, 01:03 PM

I would need to apologize for high jacking the thread as well, and I appreciate your input guys.
