Average install time is 2-4 hours if you're doing it yourself, just depends on how fast you are, tools on hand, etc.

Awesome pics. I'm buying these in the spring makes me real comfortable knowing these are in plenty of Lexus's out there. Was debating springs and shocks but for the price you can't go wrong this these.

I install the coilovers about a year ago and wanted to use them before making any type of judgment, I'll post a video by the end of the month

I just finished installing mine yesterday. I can definitely feel the road more now, the car feels different than before thats for sure! I have an awd 250 so I kept with the safe zone of 25" fender to ground, but I vibrate on inclines! Backing out of my driveway or sitting on a hill, my rear view mirror shakes around and I can feel it shaking a bit. If you have rwd, this setup of bc coils should be vibration-less.
