I don't think that the Eibach pro-kit are RED. Cause i also have the pro-kit ,it sitting in my closet right now.And they are Blackish-purple color. I think the pro-kit are ALL that color.But i'm not 100% sure. Anyone with info on it? Also i think with a 3.7 drop,you will definitly Scrape your Autoexe lip no matter how you carefully drive it. Good Luck!!!

Um..if your stock struts are already bad from the cut springs, what makes you think that replacing struts would help? They're gonna go bad again just as fast and then you're gonna have to replace them again just as soon.

LOL I think we've harrassed her enough with her nooberific springs...things happen, and she can't do anything about it now, so yeah just wait for those coils and all will be well! As for the rims, I believe you need a +42 for a sedan. I'm running a +43 on my PR5, and it rubbed, nothing a little fender rolling couldn't solve.

Welcome to the boards, it's always nice to see another girl representing the import world. I've also got a 2002 Pro. I have pictures posted but they are old. The cars been in the boy shop for a year and should be coming out any day. I'll post new pictures ASAP!
