ok, so wait. I dont get it. I read on here that the taller springs go on the back of the car while the shorter ones go in the front. Thats how i put them on. I dont know how they got compressed so much.

How can you distinguish the front and rear kgmm springs. Can someone explain. thanx

and that gas door, i bought the car with a cf overlay so ill be taking that off soon.

also, what does it mean to preload the springs. This is how i installed them. took out old suspension, popped off old springs, put on new ones and popped the top on. I didnt even have to compress the new springs. it just went on and with a lil push, i put the top on.

Not to be rude but you are not very good at reading

The tall springs go in the FRONT

The short ones go in the REAR

You have the tall ones in the rear so you have them in wrong

My buddy just put springs on his S and it makes the car look so much better. Even though it'll take you some more time to fix your problem its best to make sure it is correct.

BTW, want to make some money and sell me your wing? If you ever do decide to part w/it let me know. I've been searching for a silverstone one for a while now.

Whats your offer on the wing. There is no damage and paint is perfect and its authentic. Let me know. If you pay good enough, i might just consider.
