Yes it was a real easy install. For the front struts you will need a spring compressor.

You may want to have someone else do them for you this time, or least have a buddy help.

With the non aggressive chin spoiler and the pro kit you are looking at around a 5 1/4" clearance on the front of the car. That is about the same clearance I have on the front of my car with the sportline springs. I have not scraped my front end yet but I am very careful with how I park and driveways that have a drop down concrete curbs then a hill up the driveway.

man....now i can't decide!!!

I wanted to put a cdc chin spoiler on the front with lowering springs, but it might be too low for the speedbumps in my apartment complex. I think I should just save the money for the spoiler and get just the sportlines.

huh...now that i typed it out i think i will get the sportlines

You would really be happy with the Sportline package I know I am . But if you go that route don't half a** it upgrade your Suspension. Maybe not all at once but in a timely manner. It will only improve the handling of the Eibach Sportline.
