2014 GL450 Lowering Links?!

Hey there guys! A year and a half ago I purchased my 2014 GL450, at the time due to limited availability I didn't get too picky on the options. I figured as long as the suv had the safety features I was looking for I would be fine. But over the years I've come to realize that the lack of an active curve and adaptive damping system really takes away from the ride quality on local roads. Family members and friends always complain about how bouncy and sickening the ride is.

So with that I was looking around the forums for some good solutions to this problem. I've come across people talking about lowering the suv using lowering links but none who have actually tried this. I'm looking for people who have tried the lowering links and what you think about them. I'm also looking for any other suggestions you guys might have on how to stabilize the ride a little better.
