Not trying to threadjack, but here's a link since I see that some of you have asked.
We were one of the first to have these in stock and should be able to beat anybody's price if you do find a lower price.

Stinky,
Does the pinging sound happen when you turn? I'm taking a wild guess, but it could be your front endlinks. The OE ones aren't adjustable, so there is a lot of stress on the endlinks when you lower it to a certain height.
Dominc,
Check to see if you did not over compress the spring. I am almost positive that the clunking sound you are getting is because of the over-compressed spring. Did you install the coilovers yourself? When you lower the height on the coilover, the perch for the spring pre-load usually goes up a long with the shock body, which in turn can add more load on the spring itself. Try to reduce the spring tension by loosening the pre-load perch. It sounds like the spring is rattling because its not allowed to compress properly.
Edit* just watched the video. Definitely check the spring preload.
DPT852,
We are an authorized dealer and have a full inventory =]. We also have a sponsored sales thread on this forum.

Thanks for the pics and props! =]. They look great. Can we post this on our facebook and blog? I thought I'd ask first before just borrowing them lol.
The drop is really nice. You aren't rubbing on the rear wheels?

I got the same noise on air when I first installed. Should go away with time... My Tein coilovers however had no issues.
so since it is hard to explain in words the noise i said i was hearing, here is the video i promised, the screen is black but i laid my phone down in the back on a tshirt with the interior out so you could get a better hearing for the noise I spoke of.

Thanks Rosario! From what I see, the fender roll looks great. Who ever did it, did a really good job. Okay great, just let me know if your buddy wants to pick it up.
Dwalker, Thanks for the advice. Good news though, dominc was able to fix the issue. Just had to tighten back some of the perches.

Lol according to a few other members on here, the B+G's, go a bit lower than Stance GR+. I have yet had a chance to try to prove whether or not they are right. We no longer have the OE 17's. Gave them away to a friend.
