    Sounds like the springs aren't seating or the bumpstops are holding him up. Cutting coils won't raise a car by itself... ever.

    If you cut rear coils, it can raise the front based on redistribution of weight and vice versa, but that is a only rationale explanation of any scenario that would involve spring cutting and part of the car being raised.

    First 2 and a half coils i cut dropped the front end alot! Then a few months after i cut another...and it raised my ride high about an inch....Then cut another yesterday....Thats around 4-4 and a half, total cut and its still about as low as it was from cuttin the first 2. So idk ill give it a couple days to let it settle then ill cut another one.

    The nose looks entirely too busy with that lip, just looks stacked. I'm sure New Jersey plows their own roads in the winter, you don't need to do it yourself.

    Glad you've taken the advice given to heart and have good things on the way. While I've not ever been a fan of 700s, I'll keep my eye on this one.

    Also, pics of the interior please. Every 700 here in New Mexico is either blue garbage interior or a tan pleather deathtrap, I'm interested to see the houndstooth greyscale.
