Re: Eibachs Fitted

Lookin swish J!

However, you are the first to put Eibachs on a Active, and it still doesnt look at low as the Sportings with them on.....i know they should be the same, but doesnt seem to matter which springs you get, the Sportings seem to sit lower afterwards.

How much was fitting by the way?

Mark

they've only been on for 3 hours lol.

it looks much lower in real life though

fitting was 90. and he painted the rear drums matt black for me as well

he said they are a very good fit, and very well manufactured, and sit perfectly where the originals did
