Pics from a local car show. Obviously got there late since I got such a prime spot. :hammer:

Best pics I have taken since I put the Koni Sport kit and MM CC plates on, the drop was about 1 1/2 " in the front and back. I personally didn't want to go any lower and the ride is great! They are externally adjustable with about a 2 1/4 turn from complete soft to complete firm. I currently have been playing around with the firmness and 1/2 turn from soft is great for the street. Total firm and the stang feels like it is on rails. Very happy with the upgrade!

I want to give a thanks to everyone that has pics of their rides on the site, it definetly helped me make my decision looking at everyones setup. A special thank you to ReplicaR for his feedback! :thumb:

nice lookin bab!

Thanks for the compliments.

Fun Fact: Actually though the color is "Bright Blue" - Code: KF.
Bright Atlantic Blue - Code: K7 wasn't introduced until '98 and mine is a '95. I think my color has a little more metallic flake or something in it. If I repaint, BAB & DSG is on the short list for sure...

Thanks man!!

I have 1 very tiny spot (pass rear fender) that I notice only when I wax it (about twice a week :rollinglaugh:)
I figure if I keep the wax about an inch think it should keep it from getting worse...hopefully.

Lookin good man, just so you know, don't ever run those Koni's on full stiff, always back it off a quarter turn at least. Koni's have a nasty habit of blowing out and leaking when you drive on them set at full firm. There should have actually been a warning that came with them telling you about this, they will not honor their warranty if you send in a blown set that blew up on full firm. They can tell because they stick on full firm when they blow up, hell they stick on full firm when they don't blow up sometimes, great shocks though just always back them off full firm before you drive the car.

I wasn't aware of that, thanks for the tip!! I have them at about quarter turn from full firm, is this enough or should I back them off another quarter turn?

You should be ok there but how can you drive around with them set that stiff? I can see running at a track day or autocross with them set that firm but on the street it must be brutal.
