Default Eibach Lowering Springs

Ive got a 2000 a4 1.8TQ sports package...

Wondering...those who have the eibach sport lowering springs installed...

You guys like them?

Would it be a noticeable drop on my ride?

Oh Im stoked just got my rs4 Grill in the mail the other day..gonna look sick..any advice on where to find matching lower grills?

Thanks!

quite honestly... the pro springs are a little much. the sportlines are perfect... and a wicked product from eibach. with 18"s the gap is pretty nice, if you REALLY want the tucked look... go coils instead of the pro. hte pro is also going to be a lot harder on your stock struts and shocks. just my .02... if you're just looking for a nice drop and a more sporty feel... sportlines fit the bill

i've also never seen any lower grilles for the B5 besides chrome crap. you could always custom make one out of a scrapped RS4 grille?

did you just do the springs or have you done other things as well? what i mean is can you just do the springs or does that cause problems?

I think Im gonna go with the sportlines..I think thats the model I was refering to.

If I had more $$ I would definately go with coils but the most reasonable Ive seen is around 1400

Just didnt want to kill my shocks with just installing the springs...wanted to see those who had the springs installed if they noticed any problems...

As for the grill...Ive seen that honeycomb type mesh like the rs4 so Im going to buy some and cut it to fit...spray it black...clear coat it...and install it using zip ties under the bumber..

Ill post pics when Im done

Let us know how that works out. I was thinking about doing the same for all the grills (upper and lower) on my B5.

I have a 2000 A4 with a set of eibach's and I hate them not only did gthey destroy my stock stocks after 40k that is my fault for not doing both at the same time but the back sits higher than the front by quite a bit
