Default S/P Eiback pro kit, large pics

Here's some pics after dealer installed the new springs and a front spoiler. Perfect stance! ISPs are going on next week with an alignment. I see now why larger after market wheels/tires look better with these springs, the stockers kinda get swallowed up. Ride is not too stiff and it does handle noticably better.

4.5 hours is about right. I wouldn't rush whoever is installing it if you want it done right. I would suggest waiting at least 500 miles before you have it aligned. I paid $270 for installation and $70 for alignment. The only thing they will be able to adjust is toe if you have a RWD.

I'm really thinking on getting this installed in the Spring before the nice weather hits.

Any clearance issues? Bottoming out?

Damn... 4.5 hrs to install the Eibach? That's crazy! It should be only about 2 hrs at most!
