Record or Ridiculous

[CardNation]

So I finally picked up my A4 yesterday.

Previously I had decided that I couldn't deal with the 4x4 look so I ordered up some Eibachs and PSS9s.

I literally owned the car for 35 minutes, when I pulled it into my garage to start the install.

So now I ask, Record or Ridiculous?

I must admit, I really had trouble making the decision to start last night or wait until another day. Needless to say I am SO glad I started right away! Install took about 6 hours working by myself.

Its raining here, but when it stops I'll get some pics up.

the only thing ridiculous is the amount of wheel gap our cars come off the lot with

Very sensible.

Q: why did you buy springs and coils?

[Quattro]

ridiculous is that you ordered Eibachs, when you ordered bilstein...

True :)
Unless he meant sway bars by Eibach...

[autoverruckt]

Sounds perfectly normal to me.

Can you believe some people endured months, even years before getting rid of the 4x4 look?

[CardNation]

Very sensible.

Q: why did you buy springs and coils?

I have a good friend who sold me his PSS9s (600 miles of use) for an awesome price. I also wanted a modest drop and Eibach had what I was looking for.

Rather than drop $1195 on the Stassis C/O, I have less than half into my current setup. My thought is that if I'm happy with the setup I have now (which I am so far) then I am set. If I wish to change in the future, I can easily sell what I have for little or no monetary loss.

I love working on my cars so I have no problem changing to a new setup in the future if I see fit.

Not to mention I now have $$$ left for tint and APR.

ridiculous is that you ordered Eibachs, when you ordered bilstein...

Sorry, I was a little vague on how I attained my items. See above.

P.S. - Here are a couple pics. Sorry for the bad after shot it is still pretty crappy weather here. I'll get some good shots tomorrow. I'm very happy with the drop so far, and I'm sure it will get better a the springs settle into place.
