I'm from the UK myself (London) although I left before getting into the car stuff.. If you're worried about it affecting resale (Bilstein coil overs never really do affect resale here) the nice thing is you can just box up your old/original stuff and put it back on if you want when selling the car;0

Make sense?

Ok cool. That makes sense now.

thanks

That looks good! Lower than i expected, but you have the extra settings which i wont

San Francisco with that set up, you must have to choose your routes well.....

Yeah I don't think it is that bad as far as causing issues with scraping or rubbing or anything. I live in the flatter part of town and don't drive on big hills too often, as much as I can avoid anyway!

Yeah no problem. Road trip this weekend, so i should be able to take some decent shots. Two gallardos and an R8 are tagging along as well, so the surrounding scenery should set the wheels off alright
