1) Eibach is not a bad brand
2) Some people like the handling perspective of sport suspension, i am fine with the way the car is right now, but if i can lower the center of gravity further...hey why not
3) You said "you spend money"...its not like a drive an RS4 or even an S4, how much money do you think i spent on the car?
4) mind your own business. i wasnt really asking for your opinion, just some pictures so i get an idea.

To answer your question Sonic, i dont think even this guy knows what he is saying
Sorry man, i was refering to IcemanGER's comment.

BUt really, if you want the handeling of say an RS4 you can come pretty damn close. I have eibach springs and i changed the rear sway with the RS4 and it handels like a dream!! That was all for under $500. If you come out to any of the meets i will take you for a spin. really thats the best way you going to get a feel for different suspensions.

i thought my bodykitz are votex

i got this car from "collection used cars", I am not happy with the purchase, though

may be itz just a sports package or something (Red shocks I have), but i am sure that is a votex kit from a audi dealer

i couldnt wait any longer! put my summer rims on today...sure i am going to pay for it soon when it snows agai, but it looks sick and it only took me 30 minutes. Sonic, any time you want to meet up and shoot the $hit, let me know it would be fun if we could organize a meet sometime in the next couple of weeks, or when the weather becomes bearable.

i love the votex kit man. Are you able to order thouse parts from the dealer? We will have to figure out the shaking when we get together to do the exhausts.
