Dropped my 2012 yesterday

On my toe-boy it hurts. J/K.

I purchased a set of Eibachs from Tire Rack. Put 'em on yesterday. The drop is not drastic but they do help the stance of the car a lot IMO. Before and after measurements from the ground to the fender well make it just a few hairs over one inch all the way around. I would have liked just a small rake in the front but oh well.

The hardest part of the install was figuring out how to get the cowl/wiper assembly off. I did the whole job on impulse and did not think to take pics of the install itself but I used the sticky from the DIY section of YW and I got the basic idea.

I have yet to really get on it to test the handling but the ride feels pretty good so far.
