Hi All,

Just installed the B&G 1.4" Drop on my Solstice GXP. Much better ride! Not nearly as bumpy as I thought it would be. Much less body roll and nose dive under breaking. The biggest improvement: the rear end no longer bounces around like crazy.. that really annoyed me.. felt like I had no confidence with what was going on in the rear end.

Overall much more cripsy through turns.. especially at highway speeds (night and day) Exactly what I wanted.

Highly recommended!!

The only thing is there is no way this is a mere 1.4" drop. It looks like the top of my wheels are <=1cm below the wheel wells both front and back. It looks more like a 2" drop to me. Both front and rear and pretty much identical and it sits even. Could be where I had the GXP (Bilstein) shocks that it drops a bit more, but I scraped going over a fairly large speed bump tonight.

Will post pics tomorrow if anyone is interested. Definitely handles ****way**** better then my Jetta 1.8T with Koni shocks+springs (and better tires).
