So, I just had the Eibach Pro Kit installed for my 2013 GT. I like the conservative drop. I don't scrape on my driveway, but I've reduced the disease that is wheel gap.



When the weather clears up, I'll take a full car shot.

Vast improvement. And it's not too low, either. Good choice.

Looks good! Did you pick up an adjustable panhard bar? (my axle was offset to the driver's side when I installed Eibach Pro springs on my car)

I had it installed and aligned professionally. I asked them if the re-centered the rear end, and they said that they did, but no pan hard bar was used. Is that possible?

It's definitely not centered.

But it's off by less than 1/8". Is it something I should worry about? What ramifications are there if I don't install a panhard bar?

Because of the factory 3 link suspension, you will need an adjustable panhard bar to re-center the axle.

I have the Pro Kit on my car as well, but I added a BMR Adustable Panhard bar. While I was at it I also aded BMR lower control arms and BMR reloaction brackets.

Theride is good but I think I am going to swap out the shocks/ struts for proper valved ones. I still have the stock ones in now.

Looks sic man! I can't really answer about the ramifications of not having a perfectly centered rearend. I see you have an adjustable PHB coming, so it's a moot point.

You know what? The springs have settled a bit, and today I scraped my chin spoiler going up my driveway.

It's not too low, but it is low enough that I need to be cautious just getting into my garage.

Did you consider the 55D kit from Brembo50 as well? Were you looking for just aesthetics or performance as well? From images, the 55D kit does a good job dropping the backend making it not all mantis looking from having the brembos on.

Purely aesthetics within a limited budget. Thanks for mentioning the kit.

That's a bummer. I imagine you'll get it down, but it's still annoying.
