Tried, but had a similar issue with the top coil didn't fit right on the mount. Ricardo is working on the issue. Just waiting

Mines not MRC and the springs weren't wound correctly for my top mount.

I experienced that somewhat, you have to work it onto the mount while tightening down the top mount.

People, including phastek, said they are just seeing if it is possible. Nothing but a little R&D

someone was a little more brave to run the springs that are not shaped properly for the support cup below the top mount...

hope they do not pop out....

it was a little too risky for my liking...

It did not seem that extreme, but yes, I certainly would like my springs to sit properly.

OC your car looks great and the stance is just right. I'm not installing mine till they figure out how to revamp that top coil. I've lowered a bunch of rides and none have fit like these. They just need a small change on the top coil and all is good. I know Ricardo is trying to get this figured out. Mine are back in the box after my shops mechanic didn't want to chance it. I want mine to look like yours, just red hot. Hopefully it gets resolved soon.

Ricardo is sending me a return also. I will buy them again if they fix them. I'll probably ship mine tm.
