What brand spacers and did you have to get longer studs? Is there any rubbing and can we get a shot from the front to see where the front offset is now?

Car looks great!!! I'd love to set you up with some of our progressive lowering springs. They are on sale, $100 off for the month of July

Some great reviews on here.

What's a reasonable price for labor to swap out the springs?

I usually recommend budgeting for 45 minutes - 1 hour per corner.

Good eye. Now the next question for the OP is if he got extended wheel studs.

Doesn't look like OP has been around for over a month, so if you get desperate to know, I'm guessing it was these guys who ordered/fitted the parts for him (he said they were called Auto Art and OP is based in Chicago so I'm just taking a punt here):

Auto Art - Welcome to Auto Art!

Although didn't see any F-Types in their European gallery, not that that proves me wrong or right of course.
