Yesterday I finally got my Konis/Springs installed at the local mechanic who does all the work on my car. Cost me $318 for everything, not to bad. It happened to snow the same day so I havent had a chance to really test them out, but one thing that I noticed right away is that the front looks much lower than the rear, almost to the point where it looks like I lowered the front and didnt touch the rear. I really hope that they just need to settle. I compared it to my friends stock Maxima and there isnt even that much of a difference between the drop in the rear and his stock height. The front though looks fringin nice as hell. I also had the camber bolts installed and will be going to get an alignment tomorrow.

When I had mine installed, I had the exact opposite problem. . . Check the rear struts and see which position the Koni's are installed at. . . They are height adjustable and they may have put them on the highest setting.

When my Eibachs were put on, I had about 3 fingers between the front wheels and the well, and 1 finger in the rear. . . Now it is about 3 fingers all around.
