I will actually leave work early on Saturday. So I should be there before noon, but I'll confirm later.
Chris came out to install Kido Coilovers today. I also rolled his fender. Here are some pics. Didin't have time for pic of the whole car. I'm sure he'll put some up later.

We all run H&R 25mm spacers on our 20" OEMs. I think its the angle the pic was taken that creates the illusion that its shorter.
It's no illusion Andrew the studs don't even come flush with the spacer nuts, let alone protrude past the nuts a couple of threads.

+1 ^^^ I would check the two sides and bottom lugs, maybe the studs need to be pressed in more.

The ride is Firm and going over rough terrain the FX feels like a rally car. No sway or body roll the FX stays planted and obeys your every command. I'm overly impressed. This is my first ever coilover experience and i want to do coilovers for every future vehicle purchase from here on out. Thanks Ed for introducing me to this and thanks to Andy for the install. As for the spacers, I've been riding like so for a few months no issues.
Andy, can you take a quick peek at it next week? Also, when we do Andrew we can compare? Thanks Guys, for looking out on the spacers safety first. I'll get some pics of the drop soon etc.

I believe we went with 30inches and a quarter from the ground to the trim. Now, this is with OEM 20s with 38psi in all 4 tires. Andy, can fill in the blanks that I may have left out, since he was the brains of the operation. I wanted to remain as close to the same height of my previous setup, due to the GT Spec mid brace possible scrapping, speed bumps etc.
