They all look great. Keep 'em coming! I gotta get rid of the 4X4 look.



BTW, anybody have the installation instructions for H&R coilovers for a C4? I've seen the Renntech DIY and some others, but none of them are for a C4 or H&Rs with the multipiece springs .

A month later my wife banged the rocker on a curb and since I was constantly worrying about scraping my bottom anyway, I had it raised a bit to where you see it alongside the Carmine red 911 there.

I like it at this height...it gives me about 1/8" to clear the curb at work with my front bumper.

edit - HEY! post #996!
forgot about that pic. the black one on PSS9's as well with spacers front and rear. I think Jaspers looks best at that ride hight.

Looks like some photo shop or color correction on the silver car, best looking shot of a silver car I think I've seen.

Red and silver sure shows the size difference in the generations.

Zookie..WOW! nice pictures.. and that must be the lowest 6 ever.

edit.. sure does not look like your clearing that curb... I know mine scrapes..

I like Zookie's spare tire carrying technique. All those BMW owners complaining about their run flats should follow Zookie's lead.

Still using OEM shocks with the H&R's?
How is the ride on the H&R's?
