Setting a little lower
Decided to try and lower it on the stock bolts. It was super easy and I'm not very mechanicly inclined, so if I can do it anybody can do it. Here are some before and after pics. Need to get some in better lighting conditions but it was later in the evening when I finished but I was really wanting to take some pictures to look at the difference.

having the pics taken at the same angle might make it more apparent, but overall it looks good.
I've been looking for the "how-to" thread on doing that , but the search thing on here has been no help.
Glad to hear it's easy
I'm decent around the garage, but this car is new to me.... just learning stuff about the C5 as I go.
How much did it lower??

Should you have the car re-aligned after lowering?
