the big boy is out of the shop. finally after 5 whole months.
about to get some wiper delete panels for the headlights then play with spring pads to go a lot lower (esp in the rear)
the wheels will be here by next week or so, anticipating that.
just happy to see her back home. such a joy to drive :)

coolness...
how much ride height adjustability does that give you?
do you need to take the suspension apart to change/install/uninstall the spring pads?

thanks for giving me some newfound hopes and faith in springs... ;)

its a mercedes thing. thats how they get the amg cars lower than the stocks.
there's 4 different sizes, 1-4. lower the number the lower it drops the car. 1 pad = 16mm i beleive. you just got thru the pads until you find the perfect fitment. theyre like $6 from the dealer.
