^^ is that a custom color or did ap1's come in that blue in australia?

loooks SOOO nice!

 

Thats Monte Carlo Blue
It was a stock colour 02-03

 

Exoticcarsite... I LOVE the color of your car. I would like to see you paint the fog light housings black to match your headlights/tails, but it looks good as is too. Your whip is clean... approved.

 

A question.

I think to put H&R springs only. A dealer commented to me that would reduce about 2 cm, but I believe that it isn't sufficient to leave it lowered well.

Can you recomend me a good suspension for begin with my clean S ?

Thanks !!

 

^ how much of a drop do you want?

 

If you look above to my pix. (S2k_RN its the BB AP1 with AP2 front) I have the H&R springs on Koni yellows. The koni's are set on the top perch which is stock height. So if you lower with just H&R springs it should be about where I'm at when everything settles.

If you are looking to lower your car, I would definitely recommend that you go with coilovers. Springs and stock struts is retarded IMO since you will screw up your handling and end up having to do twice the work once your stock struts blow. I would do it right from the beginning, and if I was to lower my car again I would go with KW V2's. Why not actually improve your handling while making it look better? Another thing is that KW's are sold for a pretty steep price on this site, which is why I think a lot of people go other routes, but there are many other online vendors that carry them outside of this site. Also coilovers are fully adjustable, so you can get the exact drop that you want. Just my 2 cents. I know that i'll be putting V2's on my E92 335i.

 

I believe that I will remain with the option that you take S2K_RN, although I searched pics of KW and results are amazing. I ask to a dealer about KW.
Ships allways crush my economy.

The Koni is very popular in Spain and all the critics of their products are allways very positive.
Before arrived "gansta-dub-german-fine" fashion, all spanish tuners mounted Koni and just in my town there are several factories that mount them and H&R springs will not be difficult to obtain to me.

Thanks for help me !!!



P.D. Excuse my poor english once again.

 

i'll join u guys =)

 

WOW^^ to that engine bay. beautiful. only things i sorta dont like are the front bumper and your lack of drop. but who cares what i think? very nice car man.
