Here are some details of the suspension modifications. The springs are H&R sport springs that supposedly lower the car 1.3" in front and 0.6" in the rear. The shocks are Bilstein HD's that are street friendly but firmer than stock.
Setting up to get started

Front stuts before replacement

Old strut is out.

New strut/spring in place.

Tools of the trade - don't leave home without a spring compressor ;)

To access the rear upper strut mounts, the entire rear part of the interior needs to come out.

Rear strut assembly.

Rear upper strut mounts. If you're doing the rear struts anyway, make sure to replace these, because they are highly likely to be worn/cracked. No good ;)
