Like Rolo said, no pictures? No history? No other details about yourself? Or your car? Try reading this link here (http://elitecm.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=15) and fix up your profile bro.
Dude, mine's even more stock than yours. I got hell for not posting pics in the old g7a.
Oh yeah, welcome BTW.

suspension not on yet? =[[[[[[[[[[[[[[ I frown upon thee! haha hurry and drop it before I ship for basic, I'm dying to see the transformation!
If you need help on the install I can send you diagrams and give you a step by step. Took me only 20 minutes per corner to swap struts with no air tools

In Keith's defense, we attempted the install a few weeks ago. Since we live in the north east, we have to deal with a lot of frozen bolts. There were a few bolts that were frozen in the bushings, so we have to get the appropriate replacement parts and try this again in a few weeks.

I forgot that you guys live up north. Sounds like quite a buzz kill when it comes to installs. Good luck!

It sucks when you get excited to do a mod, and get stopped dead in the water because bolts are frozen.
