Default Pics & video after getting my Tein S springs fitted...

Here are some 'quick' photos after getting the Tein S springs fitted.
Shall give it a good old wash tomorrow and new pics weather permitting

I am well happy on the looks and performance, really sticks to the road now.

Yea I was considering h&r too but tein have got a good reputation, and from what I had seen and heard I went with them.
It not only sits good for my liking but it really does handle
Better. A happy scooby owner

That stance is spot on
I have Tein S-Techs on my hawkeye, handling is defo much improved. Though for me, it can sometimes feel a bit bumpy on crap roads.

I think a splitter of some sort will finsih the look nicely...
oh and scoob sounds nice in the vid

Thanks and yea agree is a tad bumpy on rubbish roads, but then again I like that aspect of it

Yea def needs a splitter. Not sure whether to get a splitter for this bumper or try and source a post facelift bumper and p1 splitter.?!?
