looks good! Did you say you have the front windows done at 20% from the pics it looks even. I've thought also about doing my front windsheild at 70% where you can hardly notice it, but it helps to keep alot of uv rays out... I did 35% all around, as i don't like the uneven look of darker in the back lighter in the front. |

In person you can see the front vs sides are different shades. However, now looking in from the front appears darker because of the sides being done. While I like the look so far, it may be a touch darker than what I think is ideal, and the contrast of front vs sides is noticeable to the enthusiast in me.

I got around to installing the rear spoiler today. Very happy with how it turned out. I also had the Dinan springs and bumpstops installed, but the springs are still settling. I also noticed the bumpstops are squeaking a bit at low speeds just over minor bumps. So, I figure I'll drive it around a bit before I post pictures or make any final judgements.

THANKS!!!
Visually (other than tint) pretty much, yes. I added the "sport" pedals, dual slat grille and did quite a bit of coding. I've lowered previous cars but just can't stand scraping the front bumper on every little pebble. I also don't need suspension parts wearing prematurely. I've also done a spoiler but regretted it afterword. Did an exhaust once... These days they're too expensive for my retirement pay. Things may change down the road... |

The Dinan springs are still settling, but so far I'm liking the look of things. Now, if they could just drop a little more and the bumpstops stop squeaking I'll be in heaven.

that's a pretty conservative drop. how much more do you think it'll settle?

Seems like something is wrong, looking at your before pictures it looks the exact same in the back. You basically just gave yourself some rake. I know when I ordered ACS springs for my 535d they had different part numbers depending on what model I had. They had specific springs for 535d vs 535d xdrive and so on. Basically a set for each engine and whether xdrive or not. You may want to check you got the right springs or at least they aren't the same for every car because obviously they are going to turn out different on each model depending on weight and setup. The ACS spring dropped it perfectly even.
