Got bored after work since I was actually at my house for once.






The back of the 03-05 Coupes really has a Mercedes-like style to it.

GR2s are meant for OEM replacements and spec. TireRack is correct, most drop springs will wear them out prematurely.

Go with KYB AGXs.

Those wheels are god awful, doe. Ugh.

Prematurely, yes. But not 2-3 months. It just depends on how much driving you do, I guess.

Like I said, GR2s are designed with the stock ride height in mind. The AGXs are meant for lowering springs.

With that said, I can't wait until I get my Tokico blue shocks/struts and Eibach springs. My shop sells them in house and I can get them below cost. :P

Tokicos are better than the AGXs, the blues just aren't adjustable. Now, the Tokico Illuminas, those are awesome and are a good alternative to coilovers.

Ditch the chrome wheels and mirrors and it's perfection.

Why have I never seen that car?! That thing looks beautiful, aside from what has been said by Chaos. It would look even better with a drop.
