Title: Bilstein B12 fitted!!
Post by: berg on October 02, 2011, 04:55:55 pm

at last, got my suspension on yesterday, first impressions are very good, feels much more planted through the corners but not harsh and the stance is miles better, with it ptobably due to drop a bit more after a week or so of driving.


So...

only have 2 more performance modifications to do (well, 3 if you count semi slick tyres next spring) and then can start on the interior toys.

Will get the S3 rears on and the pipewerx tbe and then will put up pictures etc  :jumpmove:

No pics...

When I had my KWv3's fitted to my R32 I remember them being harder but not crashy like the oem setup!?
