vnlilman, how was the install? you DIY? or took to shop? if its just direct bolt-on and its decently easy, i'd do it myself, so let me know how it went for you.

If I have never worked on suspension components before, but am fairly knowledgeable on how its works with install and everything, do you think I will be able to install them myself?

They would have shipped Friday if you ordered them late Thursday night. 2 business days ago. Please PM me your name so I can track your order.

Yeah I can help too feel free to call me.DareDebil911, do you feel confident? know how to use air tools? Have a lift? I did mine on lift with airtools and it took me less than 1 1/2 hours. If you feel you might be puzzled have them professionally installed.

I need help. I put the hayame coilovers on yesterday and then today when i drive i here a clanking or creking noise coming from the right rear. And it is bad when i hit little bumps in the road. Does anyone know what the problem is. I checked and everything seams tight enough. I was thinking not enough preload, but not sure any help would be nice.

Ya check everything including the 3 nuts in the trunk,
the bottom mount
the 3 locknut.
and ya make sure theres a preload so that when you jack the car up, its kinda hard to spin the spring
