Recently had Eibach's fitted, have to say I'm very impressed! I much prefer the lower look and feel more comfortable throwing it in to bends (I previously had the wrong non-m suspension on the rears!). Got round to giving the car a good clean this weekend so thought I would get some pics up for anyone contemplating this upgrade.

it seems eibachs drop the rears more then the front.. as my front looks similar to that... except my rear is like a 4x4 :roll:
 
Your zed looks mint :thumbsup: I recently fitted eibachs to mine,makes a big difference to handling and appearance which was surprising for just a 15mm drop.The only thing i noticed after doing mine is the rear wheels look too tucked in,i think it needs spacers :!:
 
How do you find the ride now they're fitted? It's something i'm considering myself when the time comes to replace the springs.

Ride height looks spot on 8)

Got to get past the bank manager first... It'll cost about £350 to get them fitted and then have an alignment done. My employer is extremely tight and won't pay my year-end balance of bonus for last year until the end of June, so I'd need some nifty footwork to get it done by the National :(

I also need new tyres soon, so for now I'll have to get my kicks looking at others' cars and imagining mine :D

No problems with the ride to be honest. I actually think it absorbs some of the bumps slightly better then OEM...for example there are some little bump things near mine where it goes from 50mph to 30...slightly less harsh but not a massive difference.

I got mine for £50 second hand, and wouldn't have a freakin' clue where to start... I'd honestly be better off paying someone who knows what they're doing... :oops:
