Hey guys, for the few hours I did drive last night it really didn't feel any different than it did with the coilovers. Steering is still very tight (in a good way). Unless I'm stopped at a light or just sitting in a parking space you really don't see or feel the car lowering. When driving you don't feel anything. The controller has 3 presets:

#1 has 10% air in the bags and this is the setting I use for the dropped look
#2 has 60% air and is considered ride height
#3 has 90% air and can be used to avoid those nasty potholes and speedbumps

I can get that extra 10% out of the drop or raised look if it's really needed. I just can't accidentally hit #1 while driving....the body shop said bad things will happen....I can only assume that means I'll tear my front bumper off and destroy the fenders probably, too!

I can drive in #3 if I want but the body shop suggested against it because it could throw off my alignment. #2 is the prefered setting but you can go from #2 to #3 and not even feel it and then simply go back to #2 when the obstruction is gone.

I've only driven for maybe 2 hours but hopefully this little bit of info helps.....I'll get more info and pics and vids as the day progresses.

I'm searching the boards right now looking for the post from the guy who had one installed. I still can't find it, tho....but someone on here has one installed. If you find the post, let me know! So I gotta take back my earlier comment.....retractable plate coming soon or at least hopefully soon!
