Congrats! I had mine installed last week, along with the Caltracs.
Did you also install the Bilstein shocks? I did everything at once,
so I can't say how much difference the shocks make, but the entire
package gives incredible handling. So good in fact, that I would
install this kit even if it didn't change the appearance. To me the
lowering is just icing on the cake.

I've been in lurk mode for a while now but saw this Hotchkis post and gotta
say that I totally agree. I've had the whole enchilada on my '98 CC 2WD 5.2
for quite a while now. 1,000's o' miles and with the springs, bars and
Bilsteins, it remains a true canyon carver. Sitting just a wee bit lower
than a stock R/T so not in the weeds. The quality of the Hotchkis bits is
beyond reproach- beautiful pieces that do what they are supposed to. They
made 'em HANDLE! The Bilsteins sized and valved through Hotchkis LAST and
deliver excellent control, loaded or empty. My unsolicited $0.02.
