Default Got my H&R OE's today...

Just got them today. Thanks to revedout for the good buy and thanks to Alexander for the inspiration for going with the OE's. I hope my drop is as nice as his. I will post pics as soon as put them on. Hopefully this weekend I love the stance on Alexander's car...

Alright, here's an update....

I finally got around to installing my springs today but i didn't get started till 3pm. I had to help my parents rip off the carpet to their house and geting it set up for hardwood floors. It sucked. As a result, I could only get the front done because first of all, i had no help. Second of all, I took my time to make sure it was done right and not rush things cause thats how you brake bolts. And lastly, I had trouble unscrewing the bolt on top of the shock because it was on way too tight on the drivers side. I had to go to Auto Zone and rent a spring compressor. It's cool cause they rent it for free with a $40 deposit and if you decide to keep them you could at no extra charge with a lifetime warranty. I took it for a drive and they were perfect(front only). I won't give the full review yet but when I finish I will post review and pics of before and after...

I am a huge fan of hella low, but any drop is better than no drop

Damn man....
Finally finished my H&R setup this morning but as I'm putting everything else back together, including the whole rear passenger rear wheel hub, I break a sway bar bolt...It was already tight on there but as I went to ensure it was tight enough by tightening it more, it snapped. I was still very happy that I got my car on all fours now after 4 days of nightmares . I'll get that thing extracted eventually but I'll got with the loose end on the sway bar for now...Also used grade 8 Home Depot bolts on the shocks....Anybody have experience using these as their lca/shock bolt?

I'll be posting pics of the difference in drop soon. Not dramatic but I like....
