OE shock change

I hadn't, but those look JUST like the kit that Maverick Man sells. I think he's around the $800 range for his G8 kit:

I'm waiting for pictures of the H&R rear struts first. That kit is a bit more expensive, but if I can get real coil-over springs on the back, I'd go with that kit instead. Otherwise, probably go with Maverick Man.
