Had them sitting in my garage for a year...I know, ridiculous, but sometimes life gets in the way. Install wasn't too bad except for removing the original rear bar. All-in, about 3 hours total for front and rear. Without a lift, guessing it would easily have taken me another two hours.
Performance-wise, all I can say is WOW! I was never really comfortable driving this car on the edge, with my last ride being a BMW 550i (E60) that was just so well balanced. But what a personality change...The car is much flatter now through tight curves and feels really planted. And I'd say that the dreaded understeer that made driving the car aggressively a white-knuckle experience before has been reduced by about 75%. All of this with no sacrifice to ride quality. I shouldn't have waited so long! Now I just need to talk myself into a tune ;-)
