Lowered on Bilstein B16 iRC
Just got around to taking pictures, surely not as impressive as so many here but my goal was to reasonably lower the vehicle and upgrade shocks and road handling especially with at least two instantly switchable damping levels available. The touch switch is installed in the front ashtray lighter socket since I was not keen to new holes; works fine for me since I don't smoke.
An iRC module available in June, will permit three user programmable modes, controlled using an iPhone iRC app.
Paid $2800 for the Bilstein B16 iRC + $1000 install + $203 for alignment at CHMB. More may need to be spent on camber kits (still deciding between K-MAC and others)

The front camber did not 'look good'. I could have ordered wheel spacers but ended up ordering K-Macs front and rear camber kits today to improve camber. Let's see how it goes once I install and have the vehicle realigned again at CHMB; hope they are able/willing to adjust them for realignment, darn finicky guys.
