They put it in, so it won't touch any railings or metal, while loading on and off the trucks and ships transporting it...


so:

pop hood -> check for spacers -> confront dealer if left in there

NIce car man, the 9 looks good in red, but there is no way I could get that color w/ my right foot, it's just too flashy for me, my GG is nice and subtle.

How do they put a spacer in the suspension? where exactly would it be?

Did you guys notice that the evo IX's sit a little higher than the VIII? I saw them next to each other and that sales guy pointed that out to me.

don't forget the car will get a bit lower. My pics were taken 2 hours after the PDI. The springs will settle over time.
