So you like them then? They ride pretty good? I've had them recommended to me by a few people (The SS's) but i figure for a $100 more i may as well get the SS+ with the helpers.
The way i see it, at this point anything is better than the blown struts I'm running on atm, but for that much moolah you may as well get what you want vs a crappy set of coils.

Damn lol. It's no biggy, i just gotta be careful which corners i hook up tight on, she likes to bottom out and send me sliding out. Thankfully with the tire setup i have, she stays straight when she does slide. But i flared my fenders out recently, so i don't need to worry about them getting munched like they were. I have a really flush fit atm with the offset i have going, don't have any recent pics up though.
I just went out and took these, edited them real quick. Not happy with the first one's settings but it'll do for what we need it for.
Well she's a WIP, I'm currently jobless and the prev. owner left me with a shoddy paint job that started fading and chipping away weeks after i bought it and some awesome cracking bondo work, but here she is. She looks like she sits a bit high now that the fenders are flared out, so the ability to go lower with the coils is a huge plus. But even now she sits low and fat, as i like to say, and i like it that way

As for wheel specs, I'm running 205 50 16's up front and 225 50 16's in the rear, rims are 16x8 on a +15 offset.
They're Varrstoen T1's, Riken Raptors up front and some Fuzion something or anothers in the rear.

I like it, I have it mated to a Corksport midpipe and downpipe. It's not too loud and not quiet. It gets the point across that you have performance without sounding like a ricer. I like it alot!

Where can I find those pieces you have on the back? Almost like mud guards. I need a pair hella bad!!!!

No, it just takes a lot of patience and a good heatgun to mold it into the shape you want so that the adhesive will hold it. Only real thing i had to do was drill holes on the inside lip of the fender and get some unnoticeable trim screws of a sort to screw it down. Some people screw the inside lip, like me, and the outside as well so they don't need to mess with that adhesive tape bull but i couldn't stand the way it looked, so i opted for the tape and heatgun method. It took a lot more work and doesn't look perfect but it adds something to it without forking out the cash for an aftermarket bumper. It also drops the bottom of the fender down depending on where you mount it (It's up to you how far down you mount it and at what angle), I put mine in a place such as the bottom of the kicker lines up perfectly with the bottom of the splash guard, this way you don't get that godawful look that the stock bumper gives, the whole car being low but then really high up soon as you get to the rear end. Drivers side turned out better than the passenger imo, but the passenger had some damage to it.
imo i think it looks cleaner if its flush the lines look better from the side of the car and it looks good from the rear aswell. here is a side angle

this is the best *** shot i got. this one is more recent. colored matched as good as i could. here u got here ya go
