Thanks Hussain! The great thing about the new module is that I can lower the car by every 2mm. This stance seems great, have small rubbing issues, but ordered the new spacer kit for the rear (smaller) that should be much better. And you are right, the lowering module should have been the first thing I should have done years ago when I started the customizing of the car. Thanks for the feedback and see you soon (In which I do everyday when I drive by Chaise Sitra)

As usual, it seems that I'm always late to the party! Great thread... has to be considering how long it has been around. Great car! Loved watching it go through so many different phases: matte, not lowered, lowered... you get the point.

Do you have any pics of the whole collection? Seemed like there were quite a few nice cars lurking around the AMG

Hey, how is the lowering module? Is it easy to use and adjust?

I'm not sure I will stay with links as they are such a pain to adjust and get all level!

It took the guys at the garage a day to install the lowering module, comes with a remote. I can set each side of the cars' height accordingly. I've now dropped the car by 25mm and its look great, small rubbing issues here and there, but not such a big deal since the inner parts of the rear fender will be "modified". Its really easy to use, I can drop the car from 5mm to 50mm which is great. and Does NOT effect the sport ABC system on the SL55 at all and no system "faults" of any sort. I recommend you get a lowering module
