So far after 1 week of install, the front has settled a little and is now 1" lower. I was really expecting more than 1.5" especially with the perches. This project was more about handling than lowering, but still only 1 inch!

If I could get handling without the lowering I'd go for that too - not going racing or autoX, just want something more sure-footed and solid. Some people went with B6 (HD) shocks + Eibach but Bilstein specifically stated not to do so, so I'm still looking at B8 + Eibach.
