Looks good!

Did you have to Trim the bump stops?
I did not trim mine. My buddy had them installed before me and didn’t trim his. He didn’t have any issues so I left mine alone. Hasn’t been an issue on mine either. The instructions Eibach provides does show you what to trim them down to if you decide to.

I’ve never heard of anyone trimming the bump stops.

Weird that they show the bump stop modification but don’t tell you to cut them off. I’m guessing the arrows indicate how much to remove? 2025-01-03 15 26 50.jpg

Eibach springs and Eibach spacers here on my 2023. I installed them 10.5K miles ago and have been extremely happy with the decision. I receive nothing but compliments on this "look".
I recommend it and would do it again!

Always been an Eibach fan personally. Just had the Pro-Kit installed over the weekend. Looks much better lowered. View attachment 27081
Killer! Hows the ride compared to stock? Does it bottom out on speed bumps? Any pros and cons you can provide? I am very close to pulling the trigger on the Pro Kit Eibach

I haven’t noticed any difference in ride quality from stock. Feels really good. Haven’t bottomed out on speed bumps even without trimming the bump stops. Honestly don’t have any cons other than it taking a while to get the alignment just right after install.
