    M3 springs on late model...got pics?

    Hey guys, I have a set of M3 springs sitting around.

    I want to put them on my wifes car, and I want to show her what it would look like.

    Got pics?

    Thanks.
    Luke

          See sig. Drop hats in front though, so it'll be higher than that without them

          Also here, yea, it has pink wheels, but it's the best picture I have for ride height.

            make sure you hack off atleast a half a coil before you waste your time puting them on.

              ^well...

              M3 springs are pointless IMHO. 1/4 drop.

                  m3 springs + no pads <= 1/2 inch.

                  m3 springs + no pads + fat friend on your hood and trunk =~ 1/2 inch.

                    So the whole "1 inch drop" on an M20 powered car is a myth?

                    I have been hearing that since the early 90's, WTF?

                    She does not want her car low, but I cannot stand that "late model droop" due to the shitty low arches.

                    I want to drop it an inch, no ore, no less...and only in the front.

                    Ideas?

                        40mm in front? Fuck no, she would bash every fucking speed bump and driveway in North America.

                        I only have 1 spare oil pan.

                        No way.

                          Idk, judging from the pics the m3 springs would level it out a bit...

                              I would want to do this as well, I tired of my e30's front end looking like a truck, but I don't want to slam it either,
