Yup, i got them on thursday and i put them on on friday, install was only $130. The packaging was superb and the coilovers were pristine, the person installing them thought they were brand new. Thanks again for everything!

That mesh is just generic car mesh you can buy at your local auto parts store. I had it installed by a shop (they were repainting my front bumper anyways), and they bent it forward in order to make it fit more flush with the bumper. I thought they did a great job.

Thanks! As of now, i dont have a camber kit, but the camber isnt actually all that bad. Its barely noticible at all unless you are looking for it. Ive only had the coilovers on since friday, ill give more feedback on tire wear etc. once ive driven on them more. Im planning on lowering the car another inch as soon as i get a camber kit, but thats not a priority ATM.

The ride quality during everyday driving is only a little bit stiffer than stock. Going over speedbumps is murder though, you get rattled like crazy. Even with a 2" drop, i still scrape on some speedbumps and those concrete things at the back of parking spaces. The car feels much tighter in turns and just overall handling though, and once i get a RSB, it should increase these even further.

So it's stock aside from the intake and Basic's and your next mod is going to be a wet nitrous kit?

Nothing personal, but there a re a ton of other mods I'd do before going that route. It's your car though.
