David--you read my mind. I mounted up the Vorsteiner's and gave her a wash before snapping these pics. I'm in love all over again!!!! I'll do a proper photo shoot once the fall foliage peaks somewhere scenic instead of my street. ;-) But Enjoy the pics! (Thanks again for all your help with my wheel setup. I couldn't be happier!)
Truly unbelievable. I will be posting these up very soon. We appreciate all your support and I am so happy that you are in love with it.
Had the car aligned today. Posting the alignment results below for completeness. I've put 50 or so miles on the car since installing the springs and getting it aligned; final drop measurements are as follows; measured from ground across center of wheel to fender lip on level surface (garage floor):
So net/net, 1" drop in front and 1.25" drop in rear. It's perfect, imho. zero rub or clearance issues so far. But I wouldn't want to go any lower than this...

acs-3: it's only dropped 3/4" (+/- 1/8") over OEM...I think it's the perfect amount of drop but I know different strokes for different folks.

Wow, wow...and wow again...
Great looking car - congratulations and many thanks for sharing.
Now I only need such springs for my V12VS - the ones for the V12 will probably not fit - will be inquiring...

Thanks for posting the alignment data.
Did you notice a difference with the reduced camber in the front, like changed steering feel?
Rear camber is rather large, but I guess it helps the wheel fitting inside the body...
I like the look of the hexagon front grille mesh, is that a one-off?

Hi Thomas—I noticed no change in steering feel. The car tracks perfectly down the road and turn-in feels amazing. Yes, there’s almost no adjustability in rear camber so it’s set as good as it gets when lowering.
The front grille is a lightweight AMR grille I picked up from Redpants. I de-chromed the entire car so the OEM grille had to go! I really like it.

Custom center caps too!
Are those OEM center caps? And they fit the non-OEM wheels? Absolutely beautiful car. It's perfect, in my opinion. I wouldn't change a thing.
EDIT: Oops - just noticed that they are custom wheel caps. Where did you get them? Love 'em.
