yup just got done putting mine on. Install was pretty straight forward.

Had to drill a hole in the trunk on both sides for the extenders. They are not very easy to turn but it works. The rest of the rear install was easy, as long as you can compress the spring, i just used a jack for that.

The fronts had a little bit more to it, but again pretty straight forward.. nothing to complicated, just have to unbolt the strut bar and a bracket.

Took me about 6 hours to do with my friend, but this was our very first install of this sort, had to remove and reinstall my sound system in the trunk, food break, oil change, and an angel eye install on my friends bmw.

Will take some pics tomorrow morning, too dark right now.

Haha it does look red, was outside under the street light I guess.

Yea I did not want to drop it too much, just a moderate drop. They might settle in a bit more but I think its perfect, especially since its my DD and Chicago winters suck.. plus I really don't wanna have to deal with scraping all over the place.
