RE: IM HAPPY!!
Congrats! Lowering the car is DEFINTELY a must. I just put my springs on a couple of days ago and installed my MM cc plates, which wasn't as hard as I thought it was going to be though it helped to have a buddy who knows his suspension stuff (which I had).
Getting rid of that wheel gap is SO nice, especially with 18" wheels. Ohhhhh yeah [8D]

RE: IM HAPPY!!
Have Eibachs waiting to go on. Could I really do it myself? Thought a shock compressor was required. Where I could find instructions on how to do my suspension myself? Hope this pans out b/c everyone around here wants $350 for an install, hence they ain't on yet!

The install isn't very hard. I have done about 4 sets of springs now. It is more of a bitch than anything. It isn't hard, just annoying after you have done it a lot.

RE: IM HAPPY!!
The rears are easy, hell I did it without even taking the wheels off haha.
For the back, I remember having to drop the sway bar, and the control arm. Put a jack under the control arm and lower it nice and easy to the spring doesn't fly out. It will the fall right out basically when the CA's are lowered enough.
The fronts are little more involved. I don't even remember how it was suppose to be done lol
