What is that plastic thing in front of your headlights? It kind of looks like those little wipers old mercedes have.

It's actually the original headlight wipers that came with the car from the fabric

From what I've heard, eibach springs are low and soft. Now I don't know what you are trying to go for as far as handling performance, but I run H&R race on Bilstein sports and they are firm but I still find them to be comfy and not bouncy. I would still rather have coilovers for the adjustability though.

Can you post a picture of yours with the H&R's ?

I'm going -35mm all around and I'm wondering if it's gonna work in the front with 205/50 R16 and back 225/45 R16 (Borbet A 7.5) ???

Last time I had 205 with 55 or 50 profile (can't remember exactly) and -60mm springs in the front I was rubbing the wheel housing when I turned right or left

Some news:

Some update: Brand new tires for the e30 (Playing with Canon EOS 550D)

After how many inches/mm lower does it need short(sport) shocks ?

Thinking pair H&R -35mm (29664) with some FK sport(short) shocks front/rear like it.s saying on the website

Strongflex bushings and a Piston :D
Strongflex bushings it's made in Poland and seems to be good quality much cheaper than Powerflex. I'll post a review about them later on the year (after some kilometers)

Did you keep the OEM color? If you combine it with tobacco interior the combo looks awesome.

More or less it's the same color. I'll be posting a proper photo soon, all I have now are some phone pictures which you can't tell the real color. I think I dig the combo you talkin' about :)


Meanwhile I picked up another package:

Smilies with headlight wipers are nice and expensive over here.
