No scrapes. It's doesn't really lower it by that much . You only worry about possible scrapes if Coilovers were used and are set too low.

Wow. I guess depends on where you live .

As for DIY, it's normally 3 hours. To clear the shock towers from the fender, I had to loosen the front axle. That was my easiest solution. The rears took me a bit longer due to the sub box removal, it's really straight forward

Will do this as well. Pelican has the GMG springs for cheaper than GMG. :::Scratching head::: Is there an even better source than Pelican, which seems to me to be the winner at this point?

When lowering the car with springs I have been advised that you really need to install the front bump and rear toe steer kits along with a set of adjustable thrust arm bushings to be able to properly set the car handeling at the lower ride heights.

How does that affect the all-in cost? Call it $700 for GMG springs (just product, not installed), the other items would bring it to...?
