Does anyone have any H&R (or other) coilover installation pics on a 996 C2? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm usually quite bold when it comes to these things but pictures and/or advice would be helpful.
Thanks!

Just had the HRs installed this week...I get the car back today. Will post a picture over the weekend, if you like. Interestingly, after looking over the height numbers for the GT2 versus ROW030, I told my installer I'd like to get set the car up at the low end of the ROW030 range (130, 145) as my car still spends a bit of timeon the street. I spoke with him yesterday and he could not achieve those numbers, car is actually is a little lower! Still higher than the GT2 at 102-122, 125-135. According to him theres still ample clearance, but all curbs are now in play.

Heres a few images of the car before and after the install...I was pretty conservative as to the amount of drop. I suspect the rear could go a little lower, but the front is about as daring as I'd like to be.
Before (With 19" wheels which fill the arches quite a bit more than the 18" in the after photos):
