I'll take them off your hands. Just let me know !!!

i used to love the lowered look, and still do to an extent, especially on non-suv. But your Q sits perfect, so i can't disagree with your wife.

Is there a how-to/DIY for changing them or instructions that come with them? How hard was it to do the swap by yourself? I swapped springs on my GT500 and while a bit of a PIA, wasn't to difficult.

Well it's basically her car since she drives it way more than I do. She feels safer at the factory height lol. I have to admit, it looked pretty sweet with the H&R springs. They will be missed,,,at least by me.
