You're welcome! They're good coilovers for a cheap price and for most people they get the job done.

I spent all of last year wanting to drop my car too. It was bugging me because my air suspension made my LS look like a truck compared to a regular LS430.

Me too! Stock height on my UL was insane. A co-worker of mine has an 01 UL and her car sat much lower and looked way better than mine. I literally had an entire foot of fender gap and towered over every LS430 on the road.

Dang man, I'm sorry to hear that. How soon can you get the correct coilovers sent to you?

The picture you sent me looks like IS300 coilovers. I will wait on your email to confirm.

Ken, from the pictures you posted, you have the correct coilovers. The box should say LL01. If it does, you have the correct coilovers.

I've been talking to Kell about this situation and we will get it fixed. There must have been a mistake in the shipping department because the part numbers are very similar; LL01 (LS430) and LI01 (IS300). This is the first time this has happened and I am working with Kell to get him the correct coilovers ASAP. -Karl
