lol nope. Specifically told them not to drill the bumper. My plate is mounted the same way it was on my E90. Clear locking velcro tape. Works like a charm and easily removable for both the plate and the velcro.

Nobleman - we need to meet up soon. I was just by edgewater with the wife on Sat to catch our last movie before the baby arrives lol

^^ works perfectly on my car as far as i could tell. I made sure the rolling diameter between the front and back were identical.

Crappy iphone pic alert...

Freshly dropped Very happy with the look. The car looks "normal" height now instead of looking like it was on stilts. The springs should settle a tiny bit more. Shows off the black calipers with the VS8.2's and the wincos 30% tint. I literally snapped this pic right after leaving the shop.



compared to stock suspension


The difference is very noticeable in person

I see the difference in the rear but the front still looks high. Must be the xi springs.

I'm sure it'll settle in a lot more in the next few days or if not already.

The front is higher than the rear but it is lower though. Could be the angle of the pic. Wish i could go lower but nowadays i value comfort over that slammed look. Sick of avoiding everything on the roads here in NY. Hopefully the springs will settle down a tad more over time.

me too

my last two bmw's were on coilovers so this is still high for me but with a wife and newborn coming in a few weeks/days this will have to do for now. I love how the car rides/handles and don't want to make it feel like crap like my E46 and E90 did lol
