    After Drop

    i bought a set of used and cut h&r from hinz (thankx dawg). i tihnk they are cut 1 coil. but you be the judge.

    i'm using #3 F and #2 R pads. i' gonna increase the rear ones to level it out. prolly to #4 or something.

    the ride is great. just like stock. well less floating and less body roll. but handling, what lean? ok maybe a lil while drifting.

    well i got stock shocks. i'm gonan get bilstiens if yall open a broke MB college student fund.

    ok so i've driven 100 miles so far. stock shocks (87k miles) seems to be good for now. no civic-like bouncing, no weird stuff goin on. feels just like stock.

    you know what I like about MB's? lowered on stockies still looks good. almost like it came from the factory like that.

    hey bro, you gotta lose that fubu antenna though.

    xm is pretty cool, but that antenna has to go! LOL. also, save up a few bucks and have you factory antenna shaved off. much nicer. i really hated that thing on my C280. thankfully i dont have anyhthing visible on my car now.
