Looks good. Nice work.
Got mine on yesterday. (Was a bitch with help even.) Ended up getting an impact wrench and still had difficulty. Will post pics later this week.

You dont think i will get any serious wear from the toe being off if i wait a couple weeks? I thought about doing that but i was worried i would rub the inside of my tires down alot. I just got back from the shop and they coultn align my car because it is too low and their old school alignment ramp is too steep so i had to call somewhere else and wait till tomorrow. The car rides great at highway speeds but you can really tell it needs to be aligned in first gear and a little in second when im turning the car it shutters a little im guessing cuz of the toe. Anybody else experience that?

Yea thanks a lot man they're great springs. the packaging had a rough ride though when the finally got to my house one of the rear springs had rubbed through the box and something chewed the red protective coating down to bare metal but oh well its just a couple little spots the size of a dime and i positioned them on the inside so you cant see them. We need to meet up when you get back from underway and put that tvs on so i can see the difference it makes.

Well, my front right camber was -2.4 degrees and my front left was -1.8 degrees when I brought it into PTuning for an alignment. They installed the camber bolts and adjusted it back to -1 degree (factory specs) so I can stop eating through tires so quickly.
