              No idea, i got the car with the mark on the bumper. Cant really complain though since i got the car for a steal. Ill probably end up touching it up some day but its not even all that bad.

                            Unfortunately Ive been real busy lately and probably wont have time to install them for a couple weeks. When I was talking to them they said ride heights are... Front 610mm with 18” wheels & Rear 620mm with 18” wheels. Not really sure what kindof drop that equates to as im riding on 17s and havent even measured my height.

                            When I install them though Ill be sure to take plenty before, install, & after photos for you guys though. As well as measure my ride height before and after so I can let you know how much the drop is.

                            Theyre definetely a great brand though and I have no doubts in them being reliable. Most drop springs rely on a bunch of dead coils stacked up on one end, which can cause a bouncy ride & reduces suspension travel, which doesnt help handling at all. With pretty much every pedders setup Ive seen, theres little to no dead coils so you keep your suspension travel, and the spring rates are pretty high which helps the handling a bunch.

                            They do cost a pretty penny though, but I dont mind paying for a quality product, as I have a feeling theyll outhandle all other springs currently on the market, atleast that was the case with every other car ive driven with Pedders. I believe they retail at around $100 a piece, but after talking to a guy working at Pedders, I got the whole set for about $310 shipped.

                            Ill be sure to update you guys in a couple weeks once theyre on

                              I love how the front grill is...black on black, did you do it yourself or did it come like that...if you did, could you tell me the steps on how I would achieve this?
