I just got my Jag back from Shoreline Motoring in Huntington Beach today.
They finished the installation of H&R lowering springs for me.
Here's a pic of my car when I first got it for reference.

And here are pics I took today, with the lowering springs.
I also shaved the side trim (which was a pain) and added 20x9, 20x10 Cache Corsica wheels with a brushed finish a while ago.

Handles better actually.
The car corners flat now.
The ride is a little stiffer, but still very comfortable.

Very tight!! Love the new wheels! I'd suspect going from 18's to 20's would be quite a ride difference. Thanks for sharing the pics!
