Not bad. I've had them on the coupe for about 4-5 months. I also have them on my 2011 MCS hatch. I think over time the ride becomes a bit more harsh, most likely will have to upgrade my shocks to Koni Yellows. I've heard they are much better than stock shocks, especially when coupled with lowering springs.

Actually I believe the stripes on the door are on the wrong side of the car.
That stripe belongs on the passenger side. There were some pics posted by James way back. Compare the two and you will see what I mean. Here is that post. https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...r-spoiler.html

My "Loaner Car"

I took my countryman in for the first service a few months back and this is what the dealer gave me for the loaner car! I couldn't believe that it could be true- super fun car and so so fast! Took it out of the city for a photo opp...
