A spiritual moment.
These arrived today. To see and touch them in real life was a spiritual moment. They are just beautiful. Supposed to be installed tomorrow but I'm debating just keeping the BCs on and hanging these on my bedroom wall.

Just not to adjust the preload. And adjust ride height on the bottom part. CBRD put it on there.

Yea been drooling over them for two years. You wouldn't think they could be more beautiful than they already are in photos but when I pulled the first one out, I had a mini orgasm. My roommate looked at me funny because as I was pulling it out I yelled "oh god oh god YESSS!" But he's not a car guy so he probably thought my reactions to a car part were abnormal.

They're beautiful! I got to see some up close at the CBRD open house last weekend, but I must admit I'm super jealous of you

Jealousy is good. It's what I used to motivate me to get enough money to buy them. Lol

At the shop now getting them installed along with White line Front Sway, whiteline front and rear control arm bushings, Girodisk brakes, AMS steel lines, Robestos ST43 pads, TWM Shift cage and works short shifter, along with the AMS and Torque solutions bushings.

Sitting and waiting is the worst part!

Sorry Mods for posting in the wrong forum. I was going to post it here but figured "Ohlins are for more than show" lol

Update:

Who needs Victoria Secret models when you can look at this all day?

Waiting is the worst part. Especially the time between receiving it and installing it.

When we were consumers we were the same way-

As a business sometimes you forget a little how exciting it is-

until we open up another set of Ohlins here- and go - DDDDAAAAAMMMNNNNN ha!
