Default Pics after NF210 Install

Here are a few pics of my toaster all nice and clean with the newly installed NF210's.

The ride comfort overall is great compared to make other cars that I have driven in with lowering springs. Highway driving can be a little on the rough side but that is to be expected with crappy tires mixed with lowering springs.

Overall, they were very easy to install; no need to cut the bumpstop or buy a camber kit. Everything was simple and the product is quality.

Review: highly recommended for easy install and great ride with a nice drop

Looks great, glad you like them.

Can you cut and paste this original post to the official NF210 thread?

Thanks!

Nope, just a simple spring swap!

So you did not have to get an alignment? I am concerned about that once I change the springs.

Both look really sweet.

Looks great!! I put the DF's on mine and no problems with alingment. I'm loving the smoked tails do you do those yourself? I did my headlights came out good but can't do the film on tails so not sure about spraying them myself.

You can't really do much on the alignment. Only front toe can be adjusted, that's it. In fact, I thought the front camber would be more negative after the installation but it doesn't looks much of a difference before and after.

No, I did not get alignment done.

I was told by a friend at Goodyear that I don't need an alignment because its such a small drop. He suggested against it if the car drives straight.

I did do the tails myself. I will be re-clearing them soon as they are as shinny as I wanted them to be.

Your headlights look sick. Those look better than most eyelids would. Nice job.
