Hi lexforlife

To answer your questions - no clunking sounds going over bumps and dips. The car is just perfect! The shop I used was extra careful with my car (the owner is my brother-in-law and he did the work himself on my car). He used the OEM bump stops with the L-tuned stuff.

When I say my car rides almost like stock, I specifically mean that the car does not ride rough. It is still luxurious - you just feel the bumps a bit more - but that can intepreted in as many ways as there are people who want to talk about it. Personally, I don't want any queasy ness or floating sensations in the car. I want to know exactly what my car is doing - so as far as I am concerned the ride quality is just perfect. It is not harsh or hard, but you feel the road. The up and down motions of the car are very controlled. Around corners, no body roll whatsoever .

As you can imagine I am going around corners much more faster than I normally would simply to feel how the car handles. Once I get used to the new setup, I am sure my driving will calm down somewhat.
