Amazing how the stock wheels when blacked out make the car look so much more aggressive! I think your friends Ruf would look much better with the wheels painted black too. Also, I like your all red taillights. Great pix, thanks for sharing them.

Thanks for the compliments! I agree, black wheels will look better on the black car, but he's all about original and I don't think he will mess with them.

I am on KW V3 and not sure how much the car is really lowered. I would guess about an inch. It was set up by a local shop for performance in mind. They had to rise a bit in the front because it was slammed on KW recommended height.
I am also running 7mm and 15mm RSS spacers; I think those spacers really give the car a good stance.

Mine (GTsilver) has the same set up, a few parts but the car looks far much "stronger".

I have the spacers on already and am debating what to do about ride height. I'm thinking GMG springs and sways. The local shop says the H&R is "good enough" but I'm not sure. It would look better lowered a little for sure. I saw the Dectane rear LED lights on a local car and WOW it's a great cosmetic improvement. I'll start saving for those now that the bleeding from performance upgrades has stopped.
