I just got back from the carwash, and while I was outside the guy waiting for the bay behind me asked my car was lowered. I was suprised, because I think my car is hovering above the ground on my stock springs.

Maybe not :?

No, not yet. It does almost look that way from the back at times but from the side you can easily tell.

Happened quite often before I put the Teins on my car. The stock ground effects make the car look much lower than it actually is.
