Well I haven't had much free time lately and haven't been on the forum much. :D

Have you posted the review somewhere? :thumbsup:

Not yet. But here it is: NO SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE noted on a Coupé for day to day driving. The bling factor got the best of me this time. :( --- :)

Should have gone with the Dinan then, a little more bling with the carbon fibre inserts

Didn't have a pic of my ///M so I used an old one of my '04 2.5. Had to sell this Strong Strut and buy new because it wouldn't fit over the larger engine.
