Waiting for the images to be "approved" on focus fanatics so I can post them on here. Otherwise, it won't let me because they don't have a URL. posted them on FF like 30 minutes ago. :?

Looks really good, the car should settle a bit as well so it's going to get lower.

The SVT Springs dramatically :shock: improved my handling, the rear end no longer wiggles :D and it corners very well. It has lowered a bit more since the pictures....

Would anyone be interested in some eibach sway bar bushings? Brand New, in the packaging. I was going to put them on if the rear end still wiggled, but it doesn't...the springs fixed that problem.

Also, my cossie intake should be here soon, should I have it installed by my mechanic or is that an easy install I could do at home? Just curious. I will hopefully install it within the week.

The intake is pretty simple to do. The hardest part is taking your old one out :lol:
