i cut mine one coil in front and 3/4 coil in rear. front ride height now is 26 from ground to top of fender and 27 in the rear. the car use to sit 1.5 inches higher. I however just picked up a stock set of coils to put back in because im in cali and we have lots of speedbumps and i scrape everywhere plus when i corner real hard my driver side rear tire rubs on the outer fenderwell and is cutting a groove in it. keep in mind i have afs 17 x 10.5 replica rims with bfg 315's and a 1/8 eight inch spacer. it does however look mean lowered.

Sending you a PM.

I want to know if you installed coupe springs and cut them 1 coil front and back or if you cut the stock convertible springs 1 coil front and back.

Can you also do me a HUGE favor.. Measure the fender height (from the middle of the wheel) front and back. I wanted to document how much the car was lowered by cutting a coil.

Thanks man!
