Yesterday I ordered the F-Sport Springs/Struts and Sways. I was curious whether or not anyone has already installed this combo on their car?

I'll be sure to post my thoughts once the install is complete.

I think you'll be the first to get all three Keep us posted once they're on. Your car's handling is going to improve drastically!

I sure hope so... I think the biggest improvement is still to come. That is when I replace the Bridgestone Turanzas that came on the car with some more aggressive summer tires. (Goodyear Eagle F1's or something similar).

My dealer quoted me $299 for the spring set, $186 each for the bilstiens and 249 on the rear sway. I'm gonna call around to get the best prices and install price

Not bad as far dealer quotes are concerned.

I got the spring set, strut set, and sways for a total of $1200 plus shipping. Not gonna say where, I'm not exactly sure what the vendor rules are, etc...

I thought I got a pretty fair deal.

Same price at Sewell, a site sponsor.

Installed the sway's on stock suspension this week.. not happy enough with the results. Just put the order in for springs and shock set at Sewell. This is gonna be awesome! heheheheh

damn the wife is gonna kill me lol

What were you unsatisfied about?

You can only feel the effects of the sways when you're cornering and taking turns at speed. It doesn't affect low speed feel at all which is to be expected I guess. That's where the Bilisteins and springs will help. In low speed turns the car still has that sloppy body roll effect which I hate and the sways won't help there. I was always hesitant to lower the car cuz I didn't want to worry about alignments, potholes, and curbs but what the heck.. I think it's just feeling the improved handling of the sways I just wanted MORE..

You could not possibly buy struts for this car. They're shocks, not struts. The suspension is a double wishbone type - double wishbone suspensions have shocks, never struts.
