Lil drop on the V
Grabbed up a set of the NGM lowering springs for the V and finally got together with my buddy to put them in today. Wanted to go with a small drop (as this will be my winter ride too) so the 1.25FR and 1.1R was perfect. Hoping once they're settled it will come down just a bit more, but happy for the price either way!

Total install time was about 2 1/2 hours. The ride is a nice bit stiffer, but still quiet and DD worthy.

It will happen soon enough. Certainly not my first drop, but at least until I do get it aligned, it's still rolling straight with no pull. Thanks guys!

Looks great. Very nice, surprisingly not too much either which is always nice. Are you still comfortable with having rear occupants? lol

Looks awesome! 
Function > Form
Small drops look way better than the pushing pebbles appearance. I dont care what anyone says. Drops where you can still drive the car with no problems and not bottom out or kill the underside are way better and give the car a more sleeker, sportier appearance. Cars that are slammed just look ridiculous sometimes, IMO.
If you ever decide to get a +1 or 2 rim down the road, it will fill up the fender well nicely. How's the ride quality and handling with those springs?
