This is probably the closest that i can find to what i'm talking about. But in person, the front has a pretty big gap and i just don't see how the 1.2 drop can drop it flush as people say the Eibach does. I mean please correct me if i'm wrong, i'm just not visually seeing it.

No, I am not saying that at all. I am saying dont think your car is going to be lowered exactly 1.2 inches.....I have seen eibach drops and I have had one. Do I think it lowers the car enough? No, but many other people may, its all subjective. If your very particular about where you want your car to sit, while in and out of your car I would advise you to get coilovers. I stuck with springs for a longer time because I loved the drop of the spring I was using. I was hoping someone was going to make a great shock/ strut set up for the G. I am also saying other things such as tire size can affect the way the car looks when its dropped or if it closes the gap.

ah! that's exactly the drop i'm looking for! I'm going to be putting on 20's, *20x8.5* with 245/35/20 to be exact. haven't decided on the offset but pretty flush without rubbing is what i'm aiming for.
see, in those pictures, that is my ultimate setting. that is exactly what i'm doing for. I dont have a pic of my car but as you can see the tires are pretty close to the fenders and its a 1.2 drop. My issue is, with stock height and tires now on oem wheels. Add like 2 inches of gap to that. Thats what my car looks like. So where my car stands now, dropping the 1.2 up front, i just can't see how it will look like those pictures when the gap is over 2 inches wide.
I took a peep and i don't see anything showing any tampering with the suspension like markings on the nuts n bolts ect.
Very odd. But ultimately, that is the stance i'm going with!

Ok guys, this is all subjective. I have had the Eibach drop, I see it every weekend when I am with a buddy. The Eibach drop is a small drop, it is sometimes hard to tell whether the car is even dropped imo. It does not get rid of "all" wheel gap. It makes it look a little better, wheel size, offset, spacers, tire size, ect will make a difference but it wont drastically change it. You will still have wheel gap.....I am not saying it looks bad by any means, cuz I loved SRG's G. Look at his Eibach drop with Cv1's. We can go over this all day long....
