Default Finally Lowered

Hey guys finally got the lowered I've posted some pics below. While I was at it I also installed a whiteline rear swaybar.
If anyones done this before then they know what a nightmare they are to change. never again
The springs are kings. Sl's up front and SSl's up the back

Looks nice. Did the sway bar make much of a difference in driving?

Edit:- PS. Those series one brakes just look scary dont they. Tiny little things stopping a V8 powered falcon. :

LOL yeah they do.

The sway bar made heaps of difference no body roll in the rear at all and i corner a hell of a lot flatter and faster. Very little understeer now too
