I got my fan switch panel I made earlier installed and wired in my center console, I used Rivnuts to mount it to make it easier to remove if I have to.

I've mentioned it somewhere that the fronts I was trimming down but yea I bought the Eibach Pro Kit in Nov 2010 and installed it on my SS, so far the UMI Rears are settling in nicely and I trimmed the Eibach fronts down since I had that option without needing to spend any money on new front coils.

It looks perfect man. You have one of the best Montes I've seen and I don't usually like the SS's.

FYI,
swapped the rear 2" UMI lowering springs to some 2" rear drop springs from CL. Don't know who really makes them but they worked great. Back end dropped 2.5-3" immediately.
Finally.

As mentioned here, every car is different and there are so many variances. My car has a glass hood and aluminum heads with AC. When I decided to lower my car I went with 2” drop spindles and 5660 springs in the front, in the rear 1.5” CPP drop springs which were closer to 2” on my car. I ended up using UMI coil spring spacers 7/16” on both sides to bring it up. It looks level but there is a slight rake.

I have other UMI parts on my car, great products and great customer support.
