Pics of Eibachs on 5th Gen
I was wondering if any of you guys out there w/ Eibachs could post some pics to see how it looks on your car. I'm going to be getting some so I want to know if I should keep them the way they are or cut a 1/2"-1" in the front. So anyone ot there has them either way could you post. Also, any danger in cutting the fronts a little?

Keep in mind that the 2002 Maxima Eibach drop will only drop 1/2"- 3/4" in the front. For some reason the drop on 00-01s is more. That's why I chopped my fronts.
No, I'm not starting the "chopping is bad" debate here either.......

Just by chance I PM'd asu174 right before I saw this thread. Here was his input:
How did you cut your springs? What techniques/tools are necessary?
Everyone is going to tell you that cutting coils is bad, blah, blah, blah. If the spring fits snugly in the spring perch, it is fine. Ask HitmanSE if you don't believe me. He did my install and swears by it.
The ride is EXACTLY the same as it was before cutting the coil. There is absolutely no difference whatsoever. Also, I can proudly say that I have one of the few cars on the org that has an even drop (without buying coilovers).
My ride is smoother than cars with Teins too..... I've tested.
