So will these lower the car to a similar height as the Swifts? I hate the front wheel gap.

^ From what I've been reading, the drop will be slightly less than the Swifts... somewhere between 0.75" and 1", but probably closer to 0.75"

Yup....

Very slightly more drop up front then in the back for a little forward rake and to even wheelgaps.

Keep in mind that one of the original intents of these springs is minimal lowering.

Which reminds me...what color do you want the springs to be?

We were thinking yellow like our STi springs.

I'm more interested in whether you'll be painting or powdercoating. The latter of course is much preferred.

I think something plain like black would be nice... so if the car ever takes a trip to the dealership for any warranty work, it'll at least look pretty stock, seeing how the drop in height isn't anything too drastic.

Hmmm....Swifts are already red. I don't think we want to use it too.

Black is a possibility.
