Finally installed coilovers - pics
Tein basic dampers that were sitting under my bed for a year which I bought for my old max. Finally installed them on my new 99 SE-L. Right now they are set @ about 3/4 the way down.

I already have a lip & sideskirts, but I'm gonna have to raise it a bit to put them on. Won't matter though b/c when I install the bodykit, I'll slap on my 19's anyways, so it will still look badass.
Yes, 5 spd SE-L, rare color, black leather, ABS. (no heat in seating). I wish I had TCS.
Ride is a touch bouncy, NOT at all bumpy. Very tolerable considering the amount of the drop. Overall, I'm very pleased.

looking good, hopefully u'll be luckier than me with the axles n crap. But nah, no way its too low. But i love when people are driving with body kits and lowered through the city, its like, scrape scrape CRACK!!!!!
but a bit too low for me. Maybe w/ bigger wheels... 
I picked em up for $800 shipped through Southwest Autoworks a while back. Soon I'll have the 19's on and it should look kinda sick. Mudflaps scrape on occasion leaving parking lots. My old max in my sig pic got totalled by some young kid driving a SUV. I wasn't at fault. I'll put it this way, I pickup up the 99 SE-L just with insurance money from my totalled 95 SE. No money outta pocket.
I got my front dropped lower than yurrs but my rear is high though, cuz i like the slanted look. I think yur car look good, just raise the back up around an inch, then it would look HELLA nice. Just drive slower when you drop it.

Looks good man. That drop is hittin'. A little too much for my taste with the 16 in stockers on there. I know you are having some difficulty driving withe undercarriage hitting stuff. With the 19 in's you should be fine with that drop. Overall, it looks real good. But I think I have the real drop. All I needed was to put some fat girls in the back seat and I got a rear end drop. Yes, that note on the window is a for sale sign. I am selling the Max with the fat girls in it.
