FK Silverline Plus X installed!

It was nearly 2 weeks ago, with still some minor knocking noise, but here's some shots of it. I replaced my much loved, but ultimately very bumpy Eibach Spring/Koni Shocks combination:


so far so good though, after all the major problems are remedied, i find better ride, and a very nice drop, i have it set a tiny bit higher than the combo i had before to clear winter before i set them lower again for hte spring

anyways, so far its good, it's very good. I'll have to wait until i get them on a track day before i actually can tell whether they are better, along with corner balancing them as well. So far though, i am very happy with them

fyi, i seen these going for about 1299 US... although on paper it is very similar to the KW V2s, but they are cheaper i think... i am picking up stiffer springs in the spring too.... so we'll see when the first track day comes!

what Koni's did you have before? Yellows and the Sport Kit, or standalone Eibachs?
