I prefer AW over MW. These are the first MW pics I've seen that look amazing. Must be the camera.

Love the car!

On top of that i still cant seem to set it up right in terms if stiffness, i always drove the CS coils on my older cars but getting older i had the idea to switch to a less sporty set of coils.
But even around the softest setting the car seems bumpy to me, that is noticeable wen driving back country roads its all fine on good roads but i have so much mountain passes over here that i like to drive, i tryed to dial in way to long so as soon as i sell the Akrapovic exhaust im ready for a set of Clubsport Coils again

I get no noises similar to yours except when I lift the car up and the spring makes a pop / rotating noise. Check your install at a shop and make sure end links aren't causing the noises. As far as bumpy when set at soft, I had the same issue.. crank the shocks up to 6-8 stiffness and it'll reduce a lot of the bounce. I had it set at 1 at first, then 3, and finally now i'm at 6 front and rear. It's stiffer but noticeably less bouncy.

Thanx man, not to much editing on the picture itself but a white car is always a pita TO SHOWCASE IN A PICTURE. a lot depends on setting like white balance and stuff.

I had the Endlinks checked a few times, i got them off and on by myself two times at least. Kinda got used to the noises but the selling point was how it handled bumps and stuff. I will try it out next weekend and see if it gets better while making it a few clicks harder.
