Wow, new suspension and painted the car yellow! Just kidding, it looks hot. Get some better pictures for us though.
Looks like it is set pretty low -- you think speed bumps are going to be a problem?

clearing driveways and speed bumps is an art, which is you take up the whole lane, slow down traffic and go extra slow

taking turns is like no other feeling. difference btwn aftermarket springs and coilovers is like night and day (or day and night)??
the downside is I feel all the bumps and grooves of the road, more than when I had the H&R sport springs.
