ok got them installed. and it took the 2 master techs WAY to long to install them. Tomorrow morning i have to drive it back up there and have them make some adjustments
1.) to bouncy.....needs more dampening.....i'll read the manual and inform them how to do that (gato if you have any quick tips on this let me know)
2.) lowered to far without rolling the fenders. ever bump the tires hit the fender.
it needs some adjustment. but i will have access to a camera after the adjustments are made and i can get to denver. My sony camera crapped out again and that means it is in the middle of interstate 25 right now.
OH!(just to tease you....the car sits low and mean) hehehehe

3rdelement, the Ksport coilovers look awesome on your ES. The drop looks just about right on your 18" setup 
On another note, I don't know if you noticed, but it appears that the front passenger cladding panel (circled on red) is not adhered well with your car.
EDIT: Oh wow, looks like I hit the 6,000 post count. Yay

Are there any How-To's regarding rolling the fenders? I have some rubbing when the trunk is loaded or there are people in the back, I would just hammer away at the wheel well lip, but is there a better way?
By the way, car looks nice. I hope you get the details worked out.

2 ways of rolling fenders. one is a tool that bolts onto your lugs with your wheel off and it has a roller on the end. (someone was selling one in the other forums) Also there is the good ole baseball bat version.
cant go lower just yet. maybe when the stock wheels are put on.

ah. yeah its because your are hitting that spring mount most likely.
your fenders would need to be rolled. but before you go through all that. Get under the car and check for the diagonal spring mount on the strut....see if the wheels are rubbing it.
BEST OF LUCK! get some good pictures and post them
