Yeah, my rears were sagging on the stock springs. I think this was due to driving around in Europe for 2 weeks with a fully loaded car at times so maybe that weakened the stock springs? I also have two Recaro Performance Sport child seats in the back which total 50lbs + kids (~40-45lbs each) so maybe it took a toll on my rear springs. I don't think this is typical of how others' cars are so I was happy when it raised my rear up using the Eibachs. Because my rears were low I think it made the front of the car feel "lighter" on hard acceleration and I didn't like that feeling. I suspect this was from too much squatting in the rear. This sensation is now gone with the car having a more balanced stance with the Eibachs.

You are right tho, it did change the look of the car from mild to aggressive and I really like the way it rides just like stock. I was tentative on this mod bc I didn't want a rough ride or scraping but Eibach hit these right on the nose. Highly recommend for daily driven cars.
Even better. I'm loving the OEM+ look of your car

Did you ever get any more pics?

I'm considering the Eibach + spacers right now.
