I love this new setup, it doesnt take too much away from the stock smoothness and gives the handling a noticable improvement.

Any problems with the lowered height of the car? I have a steep driveway and if I don't take it slow I scrape already.

Do the springs add to the ride/control or do they just lower the car?

what did that setup cost you after all was said and done (including install)? if you dont mind me asking. I have the same car (minus the L) and LOVE how yours looks.
