Dunno about the springs, though eibach are a very pupular choiuce, and at only £150 excellent value for money!

Mudflaps are personal preference, but they do come in handy for keeping stone chips and the like off the rear panels.I`ve got a set of red ones on my Silver 6, a few of my m8`s think they look tacky, the others think they look cool and match the calipers so not at all out of place.

andyevo,

I had Steve Hill M-Sport fit the Eibach springs on my VII and for not much dough the handling is a lot sharper now (|PLS| car looks a lot more squat).

They put the same springs on my V previously - same results.

Cant back to back them with anything on the market as have only had experience of these, but I'd say its a good upgrade.

Andy I've got Eibachs and Ralliart Red mudflaps on my white VI. The Eibachs are worth every penny as it stops a lot of body movement and roll. As for the mud flaps, I don't think I would have bought them but as they are on there, they've grown on me and I now quite like them. I certainly wouldn't take them off as they do prevent a lot of chips from stones etc.

HKS supersport uprated springs -32mm front / -16mm rear are a better choice than eibachs for trackdays |PLS| loose the flaps!!!!!!!!
