I cannot get it into the shop until next month, and even though I ordered the BMC filter, it still hasn't arrived, so when I do the oil change, I'll do everything all at once. I am really curious to see if the Techart's lower it more than 10mm or so...

Obviously, the wheel color is like a car color. Very personal decision. That said....If you keep the stock wheels, I would find someone to emulate the Diamond Black that BBS does. Insane look on the Black Metallic TTS.

Or, you could go all out and get some of those super sexy BBS magnesium wheels... in satin black, so they look good against the car...

So, you did investigate the price....

Vancouver here - so when it snows 1mm it shuts the city down; but we are good for the other 364 days though...

Those are the Eibachs? Incidentally, how long (without the alignment) did it take to swap out the springs?

LOVE the models enthusiasm - 4.0 - on the engine cover...

Oh, what a deal! I'll just run right out and...

I look at expensive wheels the same way as expensive wristwatches; pretty to look at, not too practical in the real world. God, could you imagine bending/cracking an almost $9000 dollar wheel? Ugh.

Eibachs yes... good catch on the 4.0

I think they charged for 8.5 hrs all in with align.. and I see on report front drop was 30mm and rear was 6mm...

About what I figured; obviously not too difficult to do, even with the front axel lift system.

I don't normally go about throwing incidental nods to "pretty good stuff" I have chance to encounter but today I tried this sh*& and must say it's really some pretty good sauce !! Great for final finish after a wash and so simple to wet wipe apply EVERYWHERE then buff...
