What Lowering Springs Come in RED?
Anybody know what lowering springs come in RED?
I want to lower gp, more than 10mm, but want to keep springs in red to at least look oem.
H&R-black
Eibach-bronze
Hsport-blue
But nothing in red?

I talked to H&R about changing the color of the springs because I wanted to change the green to red. They said they powder coat the springs. When I said that I would then powder coat the springs red, they said I should not do that because the temperature bake after coating will change the physical properties of the springs. They powder coat as part of their process to take the changes into account. Thus, I ended up painting my springs. My guess is that the paint will not last but I have not installed the springs yet.

i thought i've seen skunk2 making springs for the mini. I'm not too sure but if they do, i know they will be red.

I know, I really wanted something that sits lower, but to remain stock (red) looking. And of course quality performance springs as well not "no name" springs. I have two sets ones that came with Koni sports and H-Sports but I'd rather leave the JCWs one than put blue ones.

Vogtland, I went to see them at a Audi place more of a berry PINK color, so looks like BavAuto, (only 1 1/4 drop I wanted at least 1 1/2)
