    As far as the recent issues with the kit not going low enough... I installed mine yesterday with the perches removed, NO shortening, NO new perch, stock strut mounts and it's tucking tire slightly in the front. I just left the weld at the bottom of the original spring perch and that's what the adjuster is sitting on. I'll take pics later if anyone is interested.

        So FSUJBP, you didn't do any welding after cutting off the perch? Can you post pics of your ride stance and your strut housing?

          I know the vert inner fenders are different then coupes and sedans. Castros found that out the hard way when then made their original air box molds. I wonder if the verts mounting points are lower then a coupe/sedan as well.

                  Is everyone installing the rears w/pads in or out or what?

                      That's what I ended up doing. I just wanted .5" more drop. I ended up taking the jam nut out and running the adjuster all the way down. So far I only have the rears in. I like the spring rate. It feels good. The only issue now is that I'm getting squeaks from the rear lol

                          Correction, pledge fixes everything. I guess its the german equivalent to windex.

                            I'll have to get pics of the strut housing tomorrow. I'll also get clearer pics with different wheels this weekend. The black wheels, very sunny day with a white car has resulted in weird results here:

                              Once again I stand corrected
