Well there was a problem, when i went to pick it up they told me that the fronts didnt fit and they compressed it and still wouldn't fit, they say because its longer than the stock ones, here is a picture please tell me what do you think, are they lazy and didn't compress the springs or are they right and its not for the g37, please help me out (the fronts are marked with 001 and rears 002, but the photo only shows the fronts):

they just need to compress them more. my fronts were longer than stock as well. i used an external compressor and hooked it to the second to last coil on each end to get the most compression i could.

front eibach vs stock

And if I recall correctly, the part number is on the spring so you can make sure you have the right ones.
