Is this a used car? Is it possible it already had lowering springs on it so there wasn't much difference to be seen after installing the Eibachs? Its a pretty noticeable drop from stock and should be readily apparent.

Mine took a couple of weeks to settle.
Same day before and after doesn't look much different
Now

Took a day or two for my Prodrive springs to settle... give it a few miles and see how it is.

Yeah thanks guys, it was already fitted with some sort of lowering springs. They must been -40 or something. See how it goes after a few runs.

Could be? rears are settling to an acceptable look, hopefully the fronts will follow.

Few years back got these fitted by the local garage at the time and found they made no difference at all
My findings any way
