Blackline Lowering Spring Thread

[Blackline]

Hi everyone.

Thought I'd start a few threads here for the different lowering options we do and update them everytime we have something interesting in.

Hopefully it will give you an idea of what you want if you're considering lowering your car.

Be sure to check out our other threads too.

First up, and one of our most recent ones, is this Tesla Model 3.

We supplied and fitted a set of H&R 30mm springs and it definitely looks way better sitting a little bit closer to the ground.

As with any car we lower it also got a full wheel alignment before being collected by the owner.

Next up is this lovely MK7 Golf GTI.

We've done quite a bit of work to this one previously with a full CobraSport turbo back exhaust, intercooler upgrade and Celtic Tuning software.

He came back to us to have some 20mm Racingline lowering springs supplied and fitted.

Unfortunately I didn't take any before pictures of this one but it's a nice subtle drop in keeping with the style of this car, OEM+.

This BMW 420d came to us for some H&R 30mm springs.

With the 20s filling the arches nicely it sat really nice.

Finally for today the first Yaris we had in the workshop way back in July.

It had a Milltek exhaust fitted already and we supplied and fitted the Eibach lowering springs.

After

These really do need lowered in my opinion as they look so much better when they are.

W204 C63 sitting really well on some 20mm H&R lowering springs.

Been a quite couple of weeks for the lowering spring kits but here's a brand new A4 Avant we lowered on some H&Rs last week.

A subtle drop but perfect for that OEM+ look.

Another one for the spring thread and this time its a BMW M2 on some Eibach 25mm springs.

Perfect drop on these if you don't want to go to the extremes.

First post in here in a while....

...an Eibach spring kit fitted to this Caddy van. Subtle drop taking away the excessive arch gap but still keeping it completely useable for its intended purpose.

Few more lowering springs fitted last month...

A Passat CC with some H&Rs...

...and a Passat B8 variant on some H&Rs also.

Subtle drops on both keeping that OEM+ look with comfort

Been a while since I posted anything in here

So here is a 370Z we dropped on some H&R springs and Eibach spacers recently...

Sitting lovely on a 30mm drop with 15mm front and 20mm rear spacers.

We also fitted new discs and pads all round, a Cobra Sport exhaust, K&N intake and tuned it with Celtic Tuning stage 1 software after a much needed service.

A MK4 Focus ST we fitted a DreamScience Handling pack to last week.

This consists of H&R 30mm lowering springs, 12.5mm front and 17.5mm rear spacers.

A subtle amount but fills the arches nicely and gives it a little more aggression over standard

Had this lovely TT in recently for Eibach lowering springs, Bimecc Spacers and Celtic Tuning engine & gearbox software.

Whilst it was in we also stripped the calipers off to be sent to Nu Luk Wheels for refurbishment. Someone had tried painting them before and did a terrible job so Andy did them in a lovely subtle Cerakote black finish and we re-assembled & re-fitted them.

Hi, have you ever fitted lowering springs to a VAG car with Dynamic Chassis Control?

I have the fear that it will mess up the different settings on my Octavia

Yes we've done lots of DCC cars with lowering springs and it doesn't affect how the system operates. It's only when fitting coilovers / air suspension that you'll need a DCC / EDC delete kit fitted which does away with the faults it would throw up from removing the factory adjustable shocks.

Forum member @Geoff Campbell brought his new Touran in to have some H&R lowering springs fitted recently.

Great looking new Octavia vRS in for H&R lowering springs, Bimecc wheel spacers and a combination of Reiger and Maxton styling bits.

I really want one of these now!

 

[Boydie]

Stephens? Looks awesome

 

[bora-gav]

That is stunning

 

[Lyons]

Skoda have got the styling bang on there.

Need work on their wheels just!

 

[Boydie]

Nah for me those wheels are perfect - such a great looking car!

Tidy E92 in for some H&R lowering springs recently...

Lovely new M4 we had in for Eibach lowering springs and Maxton Design front lip & side skirts.

Simple mods but make such a difference to these!

That'll be a returning customer for a regular front lip
