    I've ordered NM Springs and H-Sport control arms, the same combination I've used in the past with great success. I am having the springs and control arm bodies powder coated red. I'll post up photos when I get them ready to install.

    Hummmm, I know the Coupe is still in stealth mode, but why am I thinking it will be a "Black/Red" color combo? :idea:

    Springs aren't mine, but Swift is a high quality spring. They are working on R56 springs (I'm not sure if they have introduced them yet). And of course, they may be different due to weight, for the Coupeeeeeeee.:D
