Looks good, I want to get the same setup and I plan to when I get some cash-o-la from taxes.

I would like to know your impressions on how it handles compared to stock form.

Also, when you say that you got the car aligned "alil bit ago" what alignment did you get? Stock configuration? or Special setup?

I took my car to NTB and they aligned it for me. They said the only thing that was outta whack from the springs really was the front so they adjusted that ..but they said theres still some negative camber but they told me that will help with handling. But the car handles way better than stock with these springs and gives it a good drop without dropping it to much.

i personally dont know for sure what difference it makes, but FWIW the shop who installed my springs suggested that i wait... i dont think they would have said anything if it didnt matter..
