Yea, tough one there.
So far, few guys I installed (both regular setup and my setup), no complain about bump stop.
It's not a regular occurrence, just seemed to happen once on a particularly nasty pot hole. Lucky not to have popped a tire/wheel

Gorgeous. I hit the front bump stops on a particular road with my M2C but not with my G80. So far so good

Do you have any used 18mm fronts that I can swap?

Looks great! Where on the spring is it set at? For people that daily their cars with a front lip can these be raised a little?

Thanks for posting

The way Im dropped, the front is static--- but I could drop it the MSS way and it would go up maybe 15mm or more and then it could be adjusted further up.

Right now the front is about 35mm down and fixed because I wanted more than what the MSS standard way of lowering allowed in the front which is circa 15-20mm.

Here is the way it looked on my other G80 without the RG Sport front MSS mod:



you can PM r33_RGSport for the details here.
