This definitely made my day a little better -- I'm glad everyone is so HAPPY! 
@toyota2bmw - i'm hoping they come end of next week. my 996 coilovers are in the shipment as well as a few other sets. my hawk distributor has about 9 sets of the rear brake pads for me so you should be good when you're ready.
@redeyejedi - glad you're enjoying the coilovers!! when you're ready for 20s, i hope you give me a chance to earn your business.
@pjinca - just make them as stiff as possible and see if you like it.

It's well worth the wait.. I've clocked maybe 200 miles so far and the drive has been fun. I may play around with the dampening more to tweak it just to my tastes, but so far so good. I asked my GF last night when we were driving out for dinner if she felt any difference in the ride and she said no, but then she's comparing the ride to her month old 2010 A4 B8 Quattro which is definitely a softer ride. She think's BMW's all drive "stiffer" which I do agree in a way.
Your car is looking good though. I just noticed we basically have the same car, 545, SMG, Mtec, black diffuser etc and soon Ksports as well haha.

Sure looks like it. But I see that you have LMs. I freakin' LOVE the BBS LMs!!! I would seriously consider selling vital parts of my body for a genuine set of LMs.
I would love to see it in person sometime. Since the coilovers won't be here for another week or so, it looks like I am looking at a week after the Memorial holiday for the install. Hope you can swing it then. Perhaps we'll take some pictures or your ride, John's and mine after the install to show-off the subtle differences in adjustments.
BTW, since I am addressing you and John by first name, I am Jason. Nice to meet ya'all.
