Got mine in January from Apex. I like how it rides and the stance is pretty mean. However, the picture BMR posted is not how my car sits. I'm not going to go as far as disappointed, but I guess I was just expecting it to look a bit lower (particularly in front) based on the pics. Here is how my car currently sits with the BMR split drop.

Thanks for your order. The car looks great.

i dont even think its possible, but it looks like you got it dropped 1 in the front and 1.4 in the rear.....again, I dont think its possible to mix up the spring and have them actually install but there is not rake to it at all.

You are right, it isn't possible. The springs are very different and any reputable shop would be able to tell just by looking at the ones they pulled off the car if nothing else. Besides, the rears have the product code printed on the side which was SP021 (1" drop). Unless I was sent fronts with the 1" drop on accident, I have no idea. Maybe I expected too much based on the BMR pictures but I'm not going to jack this thread any more than I already have.

It definitely doesn't appear to sit as low in the front as it should. Do you know if the installer loosened all of the bushings in the front to reset the bushings? We run into this a lot of times as most are not familiar with timing the bushings during a spring install. I have seen up to 1/2" settle from doing this after an install. If you have not done it I bet you can get another 1/4" out of it. Simply loosen the lower control bolts and the radius rod bolts then drive the car slowly around the block and re-tighten. The car should settle then and look more like the BMR car. Please let us know how it goes and if you have any questions feel free to give us a call.
