My car obviously lol. H&R is too aggressive drop for me, looking for a more OEM solution. Now that I have Michelin pilot super sports the ride is much softer so I can go with a more aggressive linear rate spring (V8VS). They are roughly 20mm which is what I am looking for

Hi Stuart, any updates on the lowering springs? I'm also interested in dropping mine but not as far as the H&R's. Don't want the slammed look, just .5-.75" around.

Yes! We've been analyzing the stock springs, rates, ratio etc. and are producing a prototype set for test-fitment. .5-75" of drop is the target.

Actually, I'm interested to know what colour people would prefer? I think it is narrowed down to black or yellow and I'm leaning towards yellow (just because it is kind of neat to have something different looking.)

What do you guys think for colour?

Definitely BLACK!! as OEM as possible. Yellow may he objectionable to those trying to keep the car as stock looking as possible.

My vote is for black

Can't wait to get the first set

If you do enough business with the powdercoater Stuart, I'd be sure he wouldn't charge you to do two different colour options. Just do the Velocity logo in the opposite colour on each. Yellow logo on black and vice versa. I would like a bit more lowering in the front on mine, sits too high on the H&R's in front. Perfect out back though!

I would prefer black but wouldn't not buy them if they were yellow. Red may be another consideration. As a point of reference and preference, I like the spacing on the front of ArtB's car. (No offense ArtB, it's all about individual preference and what's practical for the roads here in New England). Not sure what that drop is but its about what I'm after.
