I hear you and was very relunctant to go with a sleeve kit as I was certain I would ruin the feel and handling of the car. Keep in mind, I don't go to the track and wanted to retain EDC funtion. The Ground Control/Eibach option can be noisy and is using linear springs rather than progressive like the factory (correct me if I'm wrong). TC Kline seemed a bit unnecessary for me as I didn't feel like I needed to name custom spring rates. I must say the KW sleeve kit is pretty darn awesome. I'm sure you could notice a bit of a difference between factory ZCP and KW with reduced travel and stock shocks at a HPDE, but for me they are perfect. As far as I know, there is no other suspension option that retains EDC.
Im just saying i would have taken sone of the money spent (eg dinan intake which does nothing but look good and a couple other things ) and put it into a proper suspension that would retain suppleness and cam be adjusted for canyons or spirited drives. Thats just my preference.

Your car looks great though!

that car looks better than mine the day I picked it up.

These shots are better than the eye can see. Gorgeous.
