I finally got mine. The question is for those who have installed them on their own how long would you say it took you to do the fronts and then the rears?

would you like a cookie? yeah if I ever get the money I would love to get the Koni coilovers, but they are basically full custom race set up. just over 3K for the fronts alone.

Do you need a spring compressor to do the rears?

I got mine 3rd hand. 2 previous people had them before me but never installed them on their car and paid $600. For installation I installed the rears myself since they are really easy plus if you need to adjust them you need to know how to. For the fronts it costed me $150 cash at a custom shop plus the cost of an alignment.

For the Koni club people.. who had an alighment done where your camber was WAY off and you had to get a kit from Eibach or someone else to have it corrected properly?
